1. Overview

Refund Request by Customer for Magento 2 extension allows customers to submit a refund request on the Customer Account Page. Admins receive the notification of new refund request and accept or reject that request on the Refund Request Grid.

2. How Does It Work?

2.1 General Configs

2.1.1 General

Go to Stores ⇒ Configuration ⇒ BSSCommerce ⇒ Refund Request by Customer.

  • In Enabled, choose Yes to enable the extension, or No to disable it.
  • In Apply Refund Request for Orders, choose the types of orders to apply the refund function.

2.1.2 Refund Request Popup

  • In Popup Title, fill in the name of the Refund Popup.
  • In Popup Description, fill in the description of the Refund Popup. This section is located under the Popup Title.

Refund Popup consists of title, description, and other fields (dropdown, yes/no, text area field) to effectively collect customers’ refund request.

  • In Enable Dropdown Field, choose Yes to enable this field.
  • In Title of Dropdown Field, fill in the title of this field.
