How does Planfix help retail chains handle customer service?

Planfix centralizes all customer events from stores, ecommerce, and messengers in one governed workspace. Each event becomes a task with customer, store, SKU, and channel data. Conditional Planner lists and status sets then route tasks to the right team without duplication. Managers see dashboards with open events, and customers can view status through a client dashboard.

Can we enforce photos and receipts for returns?

Yes. You can model a status set with mandatory attachments and enforce photos and receipts using scripts. When a store tries to move a return forward without evidence, Planfix script can revert the transition. This keeps pharmacy and finance compliant and makes every case provable to auditors or regulators later.

How do customers see the status of their requests?

Planfix creates a client dashboard for the contact you are working with. You decide what to expose. Customers see current status, comments, and attached files that you shared. This cuts repeat calls and messages because customers do not need to ask what is happening with their case.

How is this different from generic ticketing or POS?

Generic ticketing tools rarely cover retail specifics like pharmacy control, store directories, SKU-level reporting, or out-of-stock routing. POS and ERP keep structured sales data but ignore messy customer messages. Planfix combines both worlds: omnichannel capture, directories, AI agents, retail workflows, and reporting in one place.
