# Returns and Claims

The **Returns & Claims** section allows customers to manage returns and post-purchase claims. They can submit a return request for eligible orders, provide a reason, and track its progress - such as pending review, approved, or completed.

Returns are initiated from **Order Management** → **Order History**. The order list includes key details such as order number, status, value, customer, dates, delivery address, shipping cost, and payment method. You can use **Search** orders or **Show all orders** to find specific entries.

In the **Action** column, the **Return** option is available only for orders with a `COMPLETED` status. For other statuses, such as `CREATED`, the option remains disabled until the order meets the eligibility criteria defined in your configuration. If a return has already been requested for a completed order, the customer receives a notification that the request was already sent – it's not possible to send it again.

The **Returns & Claims** view lists all the initiated returns.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developer.emporix.io/frontend/customer-account/dashboard-overview/returns-and-claims.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
