How does it work?

  • Retailers submit online return

requests to suppliers and receive authorisation within hours

  • Build requests manually or take

feeds directly from retailer’s EPOS systems

  • Retailers confirm quantity of books

to be returned (3rd message)

  • Print labels and arrange delivery

The title information is displayed on the system. Once the returns request is complete, retailers send it to the supplier via Batch.

The supplier will respond, telling the retailer what they can and cannot return.

The retailer adjusts the quantity of books to return, confirm the final numbers in the 3rd message and sends this back to the supplier via Batch.
