Follow these steps to activate Shopline Sync
Open the Synctrack Returns & Exchanges App > Settings > Return/ Exchange flow > Configuration
## How does Shopline Sync work?
### Important note
* Shopline Sync feature must be enabled in your Synctrack account
* Only orders created after enabling Shopline Sync will be synchronized

### Return Creation
When a customer creates a return request:
* The return appears immediately in both Synctrack and Shopline
* Synctrack Status: “**Pending Approval**“
* Shopline Admin Status: “**Return in Progress**
### Return requests created in Synctrack Returns are automatically synced to Shopline with tag
### Return information and timelines appear in the order details within Shopline admin.
