[Shipper] Returns: Disputing Damage Claims After Delivery

The customer claims delivery damage but I have proof the item was fine at handover — how do I dispute?

Submit your delivery photos and any signed handover notes through the order record in Orders. Contact the Franchise Operator with the order number to escalate the dispute.

Easy Furniture reviews whether damage occurred in your custody or after the customer received the item. Good condition at delivery shifts return cost away from the shipper.

If packaging was inadequate from the vendor's Damietta workshop, cost may shift to the vendor even when damage appears during transport.

Continue cooperating on return pickup while the dispute is reviewed. Withholding pickup can affect your shipper rating and future route assignments on Alexandria and Cairo corridors.

[Shipper] Shipping: Partial Delivery on Multi-Hub Customer Orders

I delivered my Giza items but the customer says the full order is incomplete — is that expected?

Yes. On multi-vendor orders, each manufacturing hub ships independently. Your delivery completes only your portion — Damietta or Alexandria items may still be in transit from other shippers.

The parent order shows partial delivery until every hub reports completion. Mark your items delivered only after handover to the customer with tracking confirmed.

If the customer calls, explain that furniture from different workshops arrives separately. Share your tracking number so they can see your leg is complete.

Add a note in the shipping comments if you expect delays on sibling shipments — Franchise Operators use this for customer communication.

[Shipper] Orders: When an Order Appears on the Wrong Route

I received an order for Alexandria delivery but I only serve Cairo routes — what do I do?

Do not attempt delivery outside your contracted zones. Contact your Franchise Operator or platform support with the order number and explain the route mismatch.

Wrong assignments usually come from outdated zone rate tables or a vendor address entered incorrectly during order processing.

Leave the order status unchanged until reassignment is confirmed. Marking it shipped or delivered on the wrong route creates tracking confusion for the customer.

After support corrects the assignment, the order will appear in the correct shipper's queue.

[Shipper] Shipping Rates: When a Rate Gap Blocks Order Assignment

A vendor says an order is ready but I never received it — could a rate gap be the cause?

Yes. Orders route to shippers only when a matching zone rate exists for the vendor location and customer delivery address. A missing Alexandria zone entry means orders on that route go nowhere.

Compare the vendor's governorate and the customer's city against your configured zones. Add the missing rate or ask your Franchise Operator to confirm corridor assignment.

Until the rate exists, the vendor may see the order stuck in processing even though furniture is packed and ready at their workshop.

After fixing the gap, only new orders use the updated rate — existing stuck orders may need manual reassignment through platform support.

[Shipper] Getting Started: When Orders Do Not Appear Because Rates Are Missing

I am a shipper but no orders appear for my Giza routes — what am I missing?

Orders are routed to shippers based on configured zone rates linked to your account. If no rate exists for a city pair — for example Giza workshop to Alexandria buyer — orders on that route will not reach your queue.

Open your shipping rate tables and verify every corridor you expect to serve has an active entry with your shipper account selected.

Contact your Franchise Operator if you believe routes were assigned to you but orders still do not appear. They can confirm zone mapping with platform administrators.

After adding missing rates, new orders on those routes will flow to your Orders list automatically.

[Franchise Operator] Returns: Reviewing Return Cost Allocation in Your Territory

How do I review and decide return cost allocation for a disputed Alexandria order?

When a return dispute escalates beyond the Referral Partner, you review evidence from the vendor, shipper, and customer. Open the order in Orders and read all notes and photos.

Assign cost shares based on responsibility — listing inaccuracy falls on the vendor and possibly Referral if they approved a flawed listing. Transport damage falls primarily on the shipper.

Your decision adjusts payroll records for vendor dues, Referral commission, Franchise commission, and shipper fees. All parties receive notification.

Fair and fast decisions protect territory reputation. Delayed return resolution hurts repeat buyers in coastal governorates.

[Franchise Operator] Orders: Escalating Stuck or Disputed Orders

An order in my territory has been stuck for two weeks — how do I escalate?

Open the order in Orders and review its full history — payment status, vendor notes, and shipping updates. Identify whether the delay is from the workshop, payment, or shipping partner.

Contact the vendor and Referral Partner directly with the order number. Most delays in Alexandria and Damietta routes come from production backlog or missed shipper pickup.

If the shipping company is responsible, follow up using the tracking information on the shipment record. Shippers must enter tracking numbers before marking orders as shipped.

For payment disputes or customer complaints that cannot be resolved at Referral level, contact platform support with the order number and your territory notes.

[Franchise Operator] Product Approval: Rejecting a Listing Before It Goes Live

A Referral-approved listing has inflated pricing for an Alexandria bedroom set — can I reject it?

Yes. As Franchise Operator you have final authority. Reject with notes explaining the issue — unrealistic pricing, missing safety information, or photos that do not match the described materials.

The vendor receives an email and can edit the product to address your notes. The listing stays hidden until resubmitted and approved again through the full chain.

Franchise rejection is separate from Referral rejection. Your notes are recorded for territory audit and help Referral Partners improve their first-pass reviews.

Consistent quality control across your network protects buyer trust and reduces returns from disappointed customers in Cairo and coastal governorates.

[Referral Partner] Shipping: Tracking Delivery for Your Vendors' Orders

How can I check whether my Alexandria vendor's order was shipped and delivered?

Open Orders and find the order for your downline vendor. The status shows whether it is processing, shipped, or delivered. Tracking details appear once the shipping company enters them.

You receive email notifications when orders in your network are placed, shipped, and delivered. Use these to follow up with slow workshops without waiting for the customer to complain.

For split orders, check each vendor's child order separately. A Damietta vendor may have shipped while a Cairo vendor is still preparing — the customer sees partial progress on the main receipt.

If delivery is delayed, note the order number and ask your Franchise Operator to contact the shipping partner on that route.

[Referral Partner] Product Approval: Rejecting a Listing and Guiding the Vendor to Fix It

A vendor listing has poor photos and wrong dimensions — how do I reject it properly?

From Product Approve Request, open the listing and choose reject. Write clear notes explaining exactly what the vendor must fix — for example, add a photo with a measuring tape showing height and width.

The vendor receives an email with your notes. The product stays hidden from shoppers until they edit and resubmit. Rejection at your stage stops the request from reaching the Franchise Operator.

If the issue is repeated across multiple products from the same Alexandria workshop, schedule a call to review photography standards before they upload more items.

Constructive rejections protect your territory reputation. Buyers trust listings that passed both Referral and Franchise review.
