Common questions

Service questions, answered.

01When should returns be handled by the 3PL?

3PL-managed returns can help when returned products need consistent inspection, disposition, inventory updates, and issue visibility close to the fulfillment operation.

02How does OmniCore decide whether a return can be restocked?

The brand approves the inspection criteria and disposition rules. Returned items are reviewed against that decision tree before eligible inventory is prepared for restock.

03Can return reasons and outcomes be shared with the brand?

The returns workflow can capture the reason and approved disposition so recurring product, packaging, or customer-experience issues can be discussed with the brand.
