Creating Claims Manually

Enhance your customer service and streamline your returns process with Corso’s Manual Claim Creation tool. This feature empowers your team to create new claims directly within the Merchant UI, using the original order number and customer email. By bypassing the customer claim creation process, you can quickly address issues, take control of the resolution process, and ultimately deliver a more efficient and satisfying customer experience.

How to Create a Claim:

  1. First you can look up an order to create a claim on by clicking on the ‘Order Lookup’ button in the top right, or at the top of left hand navigation menu.

Managing Your Claim:

Once you’ve created a claim for a customer, you’ll see that the claim is immediately added to your claims list. Here you can manage the claim just like you would any claims submitted by your customers. Some of the actions you can take include:

  • Edit Customer information - You have the chance to update this as many times as you need
  • Adjust Handling Fees - You can add fees or adjust them as needed
  • Add Tags to the Claim - Tag claims to allow you visibility into the claims you’ve manually created
  • Generate a Return Shipment - This will generate a Shipping Label or Packing Slip that the customer will receive in an automated email
  • Add comments to the timeline - Add notes or comments for other team members to be documented on the claim
