The new version doesn't allow return Shipping to be able to bill a third party this is a basic feature that must be implemented. The old version had this feature why was it removed from the new version??? the old version was great

 

one cannot do business without this feature.!!!  it seems like SS id falling behind, its not the same platform it used to be.

Hey there @TEST392

 

Currently you are correct, return labels cannot be billed to a third party account. But I certainly see why this would be desired! I'll get this moved into our idea section so that other wonderful community members like you can vote to potentially implement this in the future.

 

With that in mind, if, you are otherwise running into a behavior of return labels being charged to the wrong account upon creation, we definitely want to take a look at that example for further investigation! Please reach out to our support team with that order number example of the wrong account being charged on a return label, we absolutely want to help out!

the ability to bill to a third party on return labels is a basic feature, as at times our customer want us to use their account for returns ect.   all your competitors have this standard feature. worse off the previous version had this feature that's what really sucks. Previous version was gold.

"But I certainly see why this would be desired!" and it was on a previous version? Why hasn't this been implemented yet?! Too many functions removed with every version and update!!

Hello @Solo!

 

Thank you for your post! This feature is not currently on our roadmap, but if that changes, we'll be sure to inform our merchants. 

 

We appreciate your patience!

hey SS,

why has this feature not come back??  we have to produce return labels outside of SS which is so much extra work - we need SS to be more efficient for us so we can be more efficient to our customers
