Returns and RTO

Keep returned parcels visible and act on urgent return-to-origin events.

Returns and RTO

Returned parcels are not deleted from the order ledger. The RTO desk groups orders whose courier status is returned, so the team can review the address, customer history, and next action.

Courier status events are stored as an append-only history. The ledger will not move a delivered order backwards to returned. An urgent RTO event can also appear in the notification hub.
