The Returns Processing module provides an integrated Returns Processing system for your MIVA Merchant store. It provides your customers a contact form where the customer can request a return and then track the progress of that return. Within the MIVA Merchant admin, the storeowner can approve or decline a return. For approved returns an RMA number is generated, the returned products are tracked, and the type of credit issued to the customer can be recorded. All of this tracking information for returns requests is provided to the customer in a Return History screen that can be viewed while logged into the store.
