Customized returns notifications

Shane Fernandes
October 30, 2024 at 6:00 am
The current capability features a static returns approval notification. There are instances where the approval notification should be customized before being sent to the customer. Currently, the only way of doing this is to change the approval notification for all returns, save, go back to the RMA in question, approve it with the new notification, make sure no other returns are approved, go back to the nofication and amend it to how it was prior and save. Use case: there may be a specific product that is available for exchange in store, this needs to be checked with the store first so cannot be a hard rule. If the approval notification could be amended on an adhoc basis, you could give the customer the option at the point of approval and avoid back and forth via email.

Title: Integrate ParcelApp for Unified Tracking – One Tracking Number for Multiple Carriers

Mario Labault

Description: Aftership is a powerful tracking solution, but one major limitation is its inability to seamlessly track shipments handled by multiple carriers under a single tracking number. This creates gaps in tracking visibility, especially for cross-border shipments, multi-leg deliveries, or packages transferred between courier services. Why Aftership Needs ParcelApp Integration ParcelApp is a cutting-edge tracking solution that can consolidate multiple carrier updates into a single tracking number, ensuring a continuous, uninterrupted tracking experience—something Aftership currently lacks. Integrating ParcelApp into Aftership would provide several benefits: One Tracking Number, Full Visibility Many shipments pass through multiple carriers (e.g., a package starts with FedEx, then transfers to USPS). ParcelApp aggregates tracking data across different couriers, allowing customers to track their shipments without needing multiple tracking numbers or checking different carrier websites. Eliminate Tracking Gaps & Improve Accuracy Currently, when a package changes carriers, Aftership often loses visibility until the new carrier scans the shipment. With ParcelApp’s integration, tracking would remain consistent, even if the carrier changes mid-transit. Essential for Cross-Border and Dropshipping Businesses Global commerce relies on multi-carrier logistics. Many eCommerce sellers and dropshipping businesses depend on third-party logistics providers (3PLs) that transfer packages between multiple carriers before final delivery. ParcelApp ensures that customers don’t lose visibility just because a package has switched to a new courier. Enhanced Customer Experience & Reduced Support Inquiries When customers see tracking gaps, they flood support teams with "Where is my order?" questions. By integrating ParcelApp, Aftership can provide end-to-end tracking accuracy, reducing customer frustration and cutting down unnecessary support requests. Proposed Solution: Integrate ParcelApp (https://parcelsapp.com/) directly into Aftership’s tracking system to allow shipments with multiple carriers to be tracked under a single tracking number. Ensure that ParcelApp's multi-carrier tracking capabilities work seamlessly within Aftership’s dashboard, API, and branded tracking pages. Offer this as a standard feature for all Aftership users, as it enhances the core value of Aftership by improving tracking consistency, accuracy, and customer satisfaction. By adding this integration, Aftership would take a huge leap forward in solving a major pain point for businesses and customers alike, making it an even more indispensable tracking solution in the logistics and eCommerce space.

Alert message to let a user know when the same email domain is used in an existing organization

Jason Ma
February 4, 2025 at 3:30 pm
Background: At the moment, a user with a specific domain can easily create a new organization when creating an account in AfterShip We don’t indicate to this use that an existing organization is already linked to the same domain This can create confusion when member are trying to get access to an organization proactively (without being added by the current owner) Hence we end up with support tickets from member not able to get access to their main org. Expectation: Alert message during new inscription if we identify that the email domain is already used. Eventually an option to send a request to the owner of the main org. Possibility to delete the new account to avoid unnecessary org and member creations for our clients. Could be active only for ENT client if we want to reduce the scope

Tracking by Account Number

Chris Nichols
November 6, 2024 at 10:34 pm
As a user, I'd like the ability to pull in tracking numbers to my dashboard by parcel account number so that I can view all shipments assigned to a specific or multiple parcel accounts. For example I have 10 parcel accounts (4 with DHL and 6 with FedEx). I'd like the ability to utilize the parcel account number(s) instead of the API to pull in tracking associated with my parcel accounts.

We should be able to update the email address on the returns and warranty pages in case the cx is unable to access the default email.

Support the “issue store credit” option on “process warranty claim” page

Daniel Reed
May 6, 2024 at 1:01 am
Currently, I can only choose from 3 resolution options in Warranty admin: Repair item, Replace item & Other. At the end of the day, I need to manually export a list of Warranty claims and see how many store credit resolutions were recorded. (By using the “Other” option with a note.) This process is very time-consuming and inefficient. It would be very helpful if a direct "issue store credit" feature were integrated, potentially automating the process across platforms like Shopify.

Custom RMA Cancellation Timeframe

Enable merchants to customize the duration before an RMA is automatically canceled. Currently, the system only allows for auto-cancellation after 28 days of inactivity. To better suit our company's needs, we would like the option to extend this period.
