Return merchandise authorization

Also known as: RMA

A return merchandise authorisation, or its reference number, links a return to a product, order and reason. It is an administrative mechanism, not an independent statutory return entitlement.[1]

Use the reference on return paperwork and at receipt to reduce mismatches. Separately record whether the remedy is still being assessed or already agreed. Creating an RMA does not mean that a refund has been completed.
