Check for Previous Replacements

Default value: true

When this option is enabled, the action will perform the following logic:

  1. Retrieve the last (max 100) orders for the customer.
  2. Check if any of these orders have a meta field created by DG.
  3. If a meta field with the replacement key is found, the order creation process will be stopped.

👍

Check Universal Limits

Default value: true

When this option is enabled, the action will perform the following logic:

  1. Query meta objects of type $app:refund_replacement_order.
  2. Check the number of filtered meta objects by time against the following limits:
    1. Hour Limit: 10
    2. Twelve Hour Limit: 30
    3. Twenty-Four Hour Limit: 50
  3. If any of these limits are exceeded, the order creation process will be stopped.

Additionally, if Check Universal Amount Limits is enabled, the action will check the total amount of money replaced within the twenty-four hour limit against the Twenty Four Hour Amount Limit (default value: 1000). If this amount is exceeded, the order creation process will be stopped.

👍

Check for Fraud Limits

Default value: false

When this option is enabled, the action will perform the following logic:

  1. Search for meta objects of type $app:refund_replacement_address using the shipping address zip code and the billing address zip code. If records are found, the system will check against the following limits:
    1. Fraud Records Limit: 1
    2. Fraud Addresses Limit: 5

The Fraud Addresses Limit is used to check how many distinct address lines are tied to the same zip code. If either of these limits is exceeded, the order creation process will be stopped.

  1. Search for meta objects of type $app:refund_replacement_card_details using the card type, the last 4 digits of the card, and the cardholder's name. If records are found, the system will check against the Fraud Records Limit (default value: 1). If this limit is exceeded, the order creation process will be stopped.

👍

Send Notifications to DG Slack channel

Default value: false

When this option is enabled, the action will perform the following logic:

If the universal limits are exceeded, a notification will be sent to the #shopify_r_r_alarms DG Slack channel.

📘

Order Name Prefix

Order name prefix is an optional input. In case it's provided it will be appended after the initial prefix.
Example:

original_name = "#123"
order_name_prefix = "R"
updated_name = "#R123"

📘

Order Details

Billing Address, Shipping Address, Line Items, Shipping Lines, are all optional inputs. In case they are not provided the data will be copied from the original order.

📘

Discount Codes

Discount Codes is an optional input and will be considered only if it's provided and the Discount Type is custom.

📘

Hour Limit, Twelve Hour Limit, Twenty Four Hour Limit, Twenty Four Hour Amount Limit, Fraud Records Limit, Fraud Addresses Limit

These are optional inputs, each of which has a default value. They will be considered only if the inputs that they are linked with are truthful.
Hour Limit: 10
Twelve Hour Limit: 30
Twenty Four Hour Limit: 50
Fraud Records Limit: 1
Fraud Addresses Limit: 5

📘

Inventory Behaviour

Default value: decrement_obeying_policy

There are 3 possible values: bypass, decrement_ignoring_policy and decrement_obeying_policy.

bypass: The stock levels are not changed.
decrement_ignoring_policy: Stock levels are adjusted, but the replacement order is created even if there is no stock available.
decrement_ignoring_policy: Stock levels are adjusted, the replacement order will not be created if there is no stock.

📘

Use Safety Stock

Default value: false

If this value is true, the action will transfer the quantity of each replaced item from safety_stock to available.

Since the inventory behaviour is set to decrement_ignoring_policy, the available stock level is initially reduced. Once the replacement order is created, the action will retrieve the assigned locations from the fulfillment orders for each item. Then, the safety_stock quantity for each item will be moved to available.
