After returns/exchanges, staff are unsure which SKU should return to which warehouse, and online store inventory lacks clear sourcing. ## How to arrange system workflows? ### 1. Standardize SKU coding Assign unique codes and barcodes to each specification; ensure consistent identifiers for purchasing, selling, and returns. ### 2. Define return policies Define business methods for returns with invoices, partial refunds, and exchanges; verify amounts and inventory handling. ### 3. Establish procurement and inventory counting procedures Record procurement from suppliers through receiving, inventory counts, and adjustments; reconcile discrepancies regularly. ### 4. Evaluate e-commerce integration separately Define product mapping, order processing, and inventory update directions based on platform version; plan coordination between stores and online shops. ## How to determine if the process is ready? - Every sale must trace to specific variants - Partial refund amounts and inventory rules can be explained - Sync failures not mistakenly marked as successfully updated Case study descriptionAbove is an illustrative use case.
