Govern returns with policy clarity, not only review queues.
Returns create customer experience pressure, fraud exposure, and operational complexity. U Retail approaches returns as a governed decision domain rather than a single fraud rule set.

What needs governing
Eligibility, timing, exceptions, condition claims, channel differences, and escalation paths often create fragmented return outcomes.
A governance layer helps standardize those decisions while preserving controlled discretion.
Why it matters
Returns volume and abuse can materially affect retail economics. Inconsistent workflows also create friction for both customers and operators.
Governance improves consistency without forcing every case into a rigid manual process.
Operational value
By applying policy before completion of the return action and creating evidence at decision time, the enterprise gains clearer controls and more usable review data.
That supports both risk reduction and process improvement.
