In our earlier Singapore Returns product update, we detailed the customer experience your shoppers will get when they use our returns service. This guide is for how Janio shippers can use our merchant portal to create returns orders be they single or bulk shipments.

Creating Single Return Orders

1. Go to the Submit Return Order page

  1. First, navigate to the ‘Submit Return Order’ page.
  2. If the order that needs to be returned was originally delivered by Janio, you can key in the original order’s Janio tracking number. This autofills the return order with the original’s order’s details to help save you time.
  3. If not, select “No”, and you will be prompted to key in all the necessary information for Janio to deliver on the order.

2. Select how you want this order to be returned

  2. Drop-off – Your customer will drop if off at any one of our locations, listed here.
  3. Let you customer choose – We will ask the customer if they would like their order to be picked up or dropped off and fulfill the return order accordingly.

3. Input or Check the Details of the Return Order

  1. If you wish to track this return order with your own tracking number, you may key it in the tracking order input. We will supply you a tracking number if you leave it blank.
  2. If you have multiple return orders that you wish to associate with a single order ID, you may utilise the shipper order ID input.
  3. If you are dealing with a partial return where the original forward order was delivered by Janio, simply select the items and specify the quantity being returned.

4. Specify Where You Would Like This Order to Be Returned to
