Mobile Image Capturing with NetSuite WMS
Client Portfolio
A prominent UK-based online retailer of high-quality indoor and outdoor products reached out to Jobin & Jismi to ease their product return process. They offer a wide range of items aimed at assisting individuals in crafting their ideal living environment.
Problem Statement
For businesses operating in the dynamic landscape of e-commerce, managing returns efficiently is a pivotal challenge. Before processing a return, it is essential for them to assess the condition of products, using images sent to them. Customers should also be able to quickly upload evidence of damaged products by sending in images captured through a mobile camera. It will then need to be linked to the corresponding item receipt.
What We Suggested
Our team has developed an option to facilitate the return process using the customization capability of NetSuite Warehouse Managing System (WMS). This allows the RMA’s (Return Material Authorization) list in NetSuite to be accessed and displayed through WMS mobile App. Users can take the images of products directly through the mobile capture feature and can view the RMA list for the past month.
When a user selects a specific Item Receipt (IR) from the RMA, they can access a list of items along with their quantities for the chosen IR. Images will be attached to the corresponding item receipt, making it easier for the approver to verify the condition of associated products. Additionally, users have the option to upload multiple images for a single item.

1. Accurate Product Assessment: The mobile capture and image display features enable accurate assessment of returned products’ condition, reducing disputes and improving customer satisfaction.
