Post-purchase operations
Follow each order through returns, refunds, and payment
Post-purchase stability requires decoupling physical goods movement from financial adjustments. Acenda synchronizes return requests and refunds bi-directionally with Mirakl operators while ingesting settlement logs into a channel-level financial ledger for payout reconciliation.
Separating physical and financial workflows
A return authorization indicates intent to ship goods back; a refund is a financial transaction. Post-purchase events can also originate outside seller warehouses — for example, Ulta’s marketplace model supports in-store customer returns.
Acenda maintains clear records connecting original orders, physical return receipts, and credit memos.
Illustrative settlement reconciliation
Marketplace bank payouts rarely equal gross sales. Acenda’s financial ledger ingests operator statements to break down cash movement:
Net payout = gross shipped sales − marketplace commissions − refunds/claims − reserve holds
Gross shipped order volume$1,000
Marketplace commission fees (15%)− $150
Approved customer refunds− $100
Rolling reserve withholding− $50
Net bank deposit$700
This channel ledger equips finance teams to audit payouts, spot short-pays, and reconcile cash deposits without manual spreadsheet work.
