Class Return

The Return represents a physical customer return, and contains 1..n ReturnItems. The Return is associated with one ReturnCase, and each ReturnItem is associated with one ReturnCaseItem and (via the ReturnCaseItem) a single OrderItem usually representing an Order ProductLineItem.

The ReturnItem records the quantity returned.

The Return can have one of these status values:

  • NEW - the return is new, i.e. needs to undergo a check before it can be marked as COMPLETED
  • COMPLETED - the return is complete, this is a precondition for refunding the customer for a return.

Order post-processing APIs (gillian) are now inactive by default and will throw an exception if accessed. Activation needs preliminary approval by Product Management. Please contact support in this case. Existing customers using these APIs are not affected by this change and can use the APIs until further notice.
