Returns Management
Simplify the returns process and turn a negative into a positive with awesome communication and execution
When a customer chooses to return a product, the reason they are doing so isn’t really important. What is important is that you delight them with awesome communication and efficient and clear steps in the process. NetSuite’s return material authorization feature is integrated into the customer support area and is often kicked off and managed through the support / case management area. This allows us the ability to easily track recurring issues over time and provide strategic insights through dashboard analytics.

In an ideal world, every product that you sell will work flawlessly from the day its received throughout its entire lifecycle, however that’s not always the case. With NetSuite’s native return materials management functionality, you can easily turn a negative situation into a positive one with a quick and efficient process revolving around case management that lets everyone know what’s happening. From the first contact to let you know a return is imminent, your customer is kept up to date with email updates and access to a unique portal where they can update any additional information.

Warranty & Repair
NetSuite’s warranty management functionality allows you to easily define different warranty profiles including coverage, start date, time period, etc. and apply them to specific products. Depending on the criteria, the warranty registration can be automatically generated upon shipment or delayed until the end user completes an online form or returns a card for manual processing. Should a product need to be repaired, that entire process can be managed in conjunction with case management and work orders to receive, repair and replace the unit while keeping the customer up-to-date with progress.
