Sending Return Status Updates
From the Returns section, you can send the customer a 'return status update'. This is an email containing an update on the status of the return.
How it works
- When you change the status of a return, you can choose to inform the customer.
- Status updates are only sent when a valid email address is filled in for the return.
- The email has a default layout, but you can customize the text and add your own logo using Templates.
Dynamic Text
You can place placeholders between double curly braces. These will be replaced by Picqer with data from the order, picklist, or shipment.
Example
Dear {{ delivery_address.name }},
becomes
Dear Ewout Arink,
