Understanding warranty claims dashboard


Once a customer submits a warranty request through the warranty page, the request is automatically synced to the warranty claims dashboard in the AfterShip Returns admin.



The following information is available on the overview dashboard for you to access at a glance. You can click on a specific request to view more information about that request.


  • Warranty item image
  • RMA number #, also known as AfterShip Returns ID, which is unique to every request
  • Warranty claim requested date
  • Warranty claim status
  • Current shipping status
  • Customer name

Shipping status


Warranty claims settlement involves reverse logistics with products moving up and down the supply chain.


  • The product for which the claim is raised will have to be returned to you by the customer for review
  • Based on the review after the product collection, the replaced or repaired product will be returned to the customer.
  • In both cases, the shipping status of the product will be available on the warranty claim dashboard, provided you have installed the ** AfterShip Tracking ** app

    The following shipping statuses are available for you to track the items coming back to them and again the items being shipped to the customers after repair or replacement.
