Return actions (X-Cart 5.6.0.16 and earlier)

Learn how to configure and maintain return actions

Written by Olga Tereshina

The Return Actions tab of the Order Returns add-on (Orders > Settings, Return Actions tab) allows a store admin to set a list of possible solutions for return requests from customers.

Managing the return actions list

The preset list of return actions includes three options:

  • Send replacement if within the warranty;

  • Repair and ship back;

  • Give me credit for future purchases.

You can manage this list as needed:

  • Add your own return actions.

  • Delete the ones you don’t need.

  • Reorder the list by drag-and-drop — the order on this page is the order the options are offered to customers.

The list also includes an “Other” option, enabled by default, which lets customers describe a preferred action in a text field if none of the listed options fit.

Settings

Two additional settings are available on this tab, both off by default:

  • Hide the “Other” return action for customers — when enabled, removes the “Other” free-text option, limiting customers to the actions listed on this page.

  • Allow customer to specify desired action — when enabled, customers see a “What you would like us to do” dropdown when submitting a return request and can pick one of the configured return actions. When disabled, this dropdown isn’t shown to customers at all.
