Return Products to Any Outlet
With the rise of contactless shopping, it’s also important to allow your customers to return products with ease.
Cashiers can now process a return of a product bought from any outlet in your Vend store. For example, a customer who bought a product through your online store can now choose to return it to their closest physical store.
Search by the customer name or the receipt number, find the associated sale, and process the return on the spot. Rest assured that the stock will be reflected accurately in each outlet and will be shown correctly in your reporting too!
Tip: If your cashier is making a return without an existing sale attached, we will prompt them to find the original sale!

If you’re not using BigCommerce yet, it’s free to connect Vend + BigCommerce on the Pro and Enterprise plans and it’s super simple to set up!

"Product not found" warning
When cashiers are busy scanning items, they are not always looking at the Sell screen. This can result in them scanning something which is not found in Vend and not noticing that it wasn't added to the basket.
To avoid the risk of a customer walking out with a product that failed to scan, Vend will now notify the cashier when a product fails to scan - whether this is because the product has not been added to Vend, or the product code has simply been entered incorrectly.
