This is a build-to-order module, not an instant download. Typical lead time is 2–4 weeks from kickoff, depending on how customized your return policy and branding are. We scope your requirements, build the module against your Odoo 17, 18 or 19 instance, install and configure it, smoke-test the full flow (request, approval, label, refund, notifications), then hand over with training. You get a working, branded portal on your live site — not a zip to figure out yourself.

Every build includes a post-launch support window covering bug fixes and small adjustments, with a defined response commitment. Because we deliver the full source, you're never locked in. When you upgrade Odoo (e.g. 18 to 19) or want new features — additional carriers, restocking-fee tiers, deeper WMS integration — we offer paid maintenance and enhancement retainers. We do not silently push changes to your production instance; updates are scheduled and tested with you.

It works on both. The module builds on the standard website, sale, stock and portal apps that exist in Community and Enterprise alike. Some optional touches (like certain shipping-carrier connectors or advanced SMS gateways) depend on which apps you already have; we confirm exactly what's available on your instance during scoping and design the build around it.

Eligibility is enforced in real business logic, not just UI hints. The portal only shows orders and line items tied to the logged-in customer via record rules, quantities are validated against delivered stock.move lines, and a computed return window (via @api.depends on the order's delivery/invoice dates) plus per-product non-returnable flags block out-of-policy requests before they're ever submitted.

Approval creates a reverse stock.picking so the return appears in your standard Inventory app for the warehouse to receive. Once received, refunds post as native account.move credit notes, keeping your accounting reconciled and auditable. Nothing lives in a disconnected silo — returns, stock and finance all use Odoo's native models.

Yes. The RMA models are exposed over Odoo's XML-RPC and JSON-RPC APIs, so a 3PL, warehouse system or headless storefront can create return requests, push status updates (e.g. 'received at warehouse') and read refund status programmatically. We document the available endpoints and fields as part of handover.
