How the Integration Works

Create Sales Credits on Brightpearl

This integration enables the automatic creation of a Sales Credit (RMA) on Brightpearl when an RMA is approved in ReturnGO.

Update Refund Information on Brightpearl

Using the integration, ReturnGO will automatically update the Sales Credit on Brightpearl with refund information.

Webhook Updates from Brightpearl

Receive webhook updates from Brightpearl to automatically update the RMA card and status for the following events:

  • Items are received.
  • Items are restocked.

Item Validation and Restocking Features

When using the integration with Brightpearl, the item validation and restocking features in ReturnGO are disabled. 

Instead, ReturnGO will get updates from Brightpearl when items are received and when the inspection results are available. This will allow you to automate business processes based on these events.

Refund Reconciliation

Please note that refunds processed in ReturnGO will not be automatically reflected in your Brightpearl ERP. Visit your Brightpearl dashboard to manually reconcile the refund.

Troubleshooting the Integration 

Many of the issues encountered related to the integration can be identified during setup. 

Here are a few things you can check to try and fix such issues: 

Setup Issues 

Make sure your API credentials are accurate. 

  • There should be no extra spaces before or after each API entry. 
  • Make sure you are using live or production API credentials, and not dev or test APIs. 
  • Try to re-generate a new API key and reconnect.
