Shopify Returns and Exchanges Data

Approve the Shopify Returns Permissions in Blue Onion

What changed

Blue Onion can now receive return and exchange records from Shopify. When a customer swaps a returned item for other items with no refund, Shopify records a return rather than a refund. Until now we couldn't see those records.

Who's affected

Stores connected to Shopify.

Action needed

Shopify only shares return data once you approve one extra permission. In Blue Onion, open your Shopify connection and click Update Scopes. You'll need to be logged into your Shopify admin with permission to approve apps. It takes about a minute and does not disconnect your store. If you have more than one Shopify store connected, repeat this for each.

Scope

Return and exchange records start coming in once the permission is approved. Returns handled through third-party returns apps may not appear in Shopify's return records.

Effect

Your existing journal entries do not change today. This gives Blue Onion the data it needs to handle exchanges more accurately.
