# Viewing RMA Details

Last Updated: April 2, 2026

When your customer submits an exchange or a refund request through your portal, the request details are documented on an RMA page. 

To view a specific RMA, go to [**Manage Returns**](https://app.returngo.ai/dashboard/returns) and click on the relevant RMA.

The RMA page gives you a comprehensive view of each return request:

- **Back button:** Click the arrow to return to the main *Manage Returns* page.
- **Previous/next buttons:** Navigate to the previous or next RMA in the list.
- **RMA summary:** Displays the RMA number, date and time the return was requested, and the current status of the RMA.
- **Order summary:** Shows the associated order number (clickable to view order details in your eCommerce store), order status, and fulfillment date.
- **Customer info:** View the customer's name, any other open RMAs they have, their store credit balance, transaction history, and shipping address.
- **Original Items:** A list of all returned items in the return request. Click on an item to view detailed information. Use the checkboxes to select specific items for actions like refunding or restocking.
- **New Items:** A list of all new items selected by the customer to replace the original returned items.
- **Shipments:** Expand this section to see tracking details and status updates for the return shipment.
- **Draft orders and pending payments:** View any draft orders, invoices, and pending payments for exchanges related to this RMA.
- **Timeline:** A chronological log of all activity related to the RMA, including automated actions and manual updates. You can also add your own notes directly to the timeline.
- **Action buttons bar:** The bottom bar contains buttons for taking actions on the RMA, such as approving, rejecting, marking as received, and more. The available actions will vary depending on the current status of the RMA.

- **In transit:** The item has been shipped by the return carrier.

### Draft Orders and Pending Payments

For exchange requests, the RMA will have an additional section called *Payments & Exchanges*, where you can view any draft exchange orders, invoices, and pending payments.

![Draft3](https://support.returngo.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Draft3.png?width=670&height=315&name=Draft3.png)

In the *Payments & Exchanges* section you can view the following details:

- **Portal Payments:** This shows any charges associated with the exchange, such as price differences or fees. 
    - If the merchant does not have the [**in-portal checkout**](https://support.returngo.ai/portal-checkout?hsLang=en) feature, pending payments will appear as an invoice instead.

    - Once the draft order has been released and fulfilled, it will change to be called Exchange, with a link to the order in your eCommerce store, and will display a *Released* status.
