Sync Refunds to NetSuite Connector for eCommerce

Syncing refunds from your eCommerce marketplace or cart to NetSuite is essential for maintaining accurate financial records. To successfully sync a refund, first, ensure the order has been refunded in your marketplace or cart and was previously synced to NetSuite. Here’s a detailed guide on how to accomplish this task.

How Do You Sync a Refund to NetSuite?

To sync the refund, follow these steps:

1. Log in to app.farapp.com.
2. Select the appropriate connector and account.
3. Navigate to Data Flows > Other Transactions.
4. From the Transaction Type dropdown, select Refunds And Returns.
5. Click Retrieve. This opens the Retrieve Refund/Return into FarApp window.
6. Enter the order ID in the Order/Transaction ID field.
7. Click Retrieve. The NetSuite Connector will import the refund, displaying a success message.
8. Click Close.
9. Locate the imported refund in the transactions list. If it doesn’t appear, refresh the page.
10. Click the Action menu (pencil icon) and select Post Order to NetSuite. The refund will sync to NetSuite, and you will receive a Posted status if successful. If the sync fails, hover over the refund for the error message to take corrective action.

Important Considerations

• Ensure the refund is for an order that has been billed and synced to NetSuite.
