When a refund is detected in the storefront, only sync cash refunds against a matching record in NetSuite. This applies to all channels/accounts.
For return processing, ensure that only relevant records are synchronized based on your operational processes.

By carefully configuring these settings, businesses can streamline their return processes across platforms, reduce manual errors, and improve operational efficiency.
