concept brazil Updated Sep 10, 2026 1 min read manage-rma-req.md
Initiate a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) process by submitting an RMA request to initiate an RMA process with your vendor. You can repair or replace a faulty asset.
After you submit an RMA request for a defective asset, you must go through various tasks to finalize repairing or replacing the asset.
To close an RMA request, you have to close each of its request lines separately. To close a line, you have to complete all the line's RMA tasks, and you must provide any necessary information about the line. You close a line by first closing its Assessment task. Then the defective asset is sent for either off-site or on-site repair. The line is closed after all these tasks are finished.
