  2. Using the top menu bar, hover over the Orders<\/strong> tab and click on the Merchandise Returns<\/strong> option.
    \"_returns\"<\/a>\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. You will be taken to the Merchandise Returns<\/em> screen. All returns will be listed in the top portion of the screen. New returns carry the status Waiting for Confirmation<\/em>. Find the return you want to work on and simply click on that row.
    \"select-return\"<\/a>\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  4. You are taken to the edit screen for your selected return. A customer is not to send the return until it is confirmed or denied. The status<\/strong> field contains a dropdown with\u00a0 several options.

    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

    \"return-status\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  5. Click on the green Save<\/strong> button to save the new status. This immediately changes the status within the customer\u2019s interface.
