What are unsellable returns?什么是不可售退货？
Unsellable returns are physically received units that fail the documented release requirements for a specified sales channel at the as-of time. Record the failed requirement—identity, completeness, condition, hygiene, function, packaging, expiration, authenticity, recall/safety restriction or channel policy—separately from the customer reason. Keep the unit blocked, obtain qualified review where required, and route it to repair, refurbishment, return to vendor, alternate channel, parts harvest, donation, recycling or compliant disposal with custody and financial evidence.
不可售退货是指在截至时间未通过指定销售渠道文档化释放要求的实体实收商品。将失败要求——身份、完整性、状态、卫生、功能、包装、有效期、真伪、召回/安全限制或渠道政策——与客户原因分开记录。保持商品阻断，在需要时取得合格审核，并带监管与财务证据路由至维修、翻新、退回供应商、替代渠道、拆件、捐赠、回收或合规处置。
CPSC guidance is a critical U.S. boundary: recalled consumer products cannot simply be resold, and product/category rules require qualified compliance review. EPA’s non-hazardous materials hierarchy is a lifecycle planning reference, not permission to use a route. Hazardous, regulated, sanitary, privacy-bearing and cross-border goods need their own controls.
CPSC 指南是美国关键边界：召回消费品不能简单再销售，商品/类别规则需要合格合规审核。EPA 非危险材料层级是生命周期规划参考，并非使用某条路线的许可。危险、受监管、卫生、带隐私数据与跨境商品需要自身控制。
Define channel-specific sellability before classifying failure分类失败前先定义渠道特定可售性
A damaged retail box may fail new-condition direct-to-consumer requirements but remain eligible for an approved alternate channel after inspection and disclosure; a recalled or unsafe product may be prohibited from sale. Version requirements by product class, jurisdiction, channel and effective date. Never make safety a pricing decision.
零售包装损坏可能不符合新品直销要求，但经质检与披露后仍可能符合获批替代渠道；召回或不安全商品可能禁止销售。按商品类别、司法辖区、渠道与生效日期对要求版本化。绝不能把安全问题变为定价问题。
Record write-down, refurbishment, liquidation, donation, disposal, storage, and recovered value as separate fields.把跌价、翻新、清算、捐赠、报废、仓储与回收价值分别记录。
Measure receiving, opening, inspection, testing, cleaning, repacking, relabeling, and movement time.衡量收货、开箱、质检、测试、清洁、重新包装、贴标与搬运时间。
Use handle time multiplied by loaded labor rate, plus any case-specific platform or communication charge.使用处理时长乘以含附加成本的人工费率，并加入工单相关平台或通信费用。
Verify processor, return-fee, tax, marketplace, and promotional treatment from current contracts and transaction records.根据当前合同和交易记录核验支付、退货费、税费、平台与促销处理。
The EPA hierarchy prioritizes source reduction and reuse, then recycling, energy recovery and treatment/disposal for non-hazardous materials while noting no one approach fits every stream. Apply product safety, environmental, privacy, contractual and local rules before considering the hierarchy.
EPA 非危险材料层级优先源头减量与再利用，其后是回收、能源回收与处理/处置，并说明不存在适合所有材料流的单一方法。考虑该层级前，应先应用商品安全、环境、隐私、合同与本地规则。
Measure unsellable outcomes from a verified received cohort从已核验实收群组衡量不可售结果
Publish the product/channel rule version, inspection method, as-of date, numerator/denominator counts, unknown/pending units and exclusion reasons. Also report quantities and realized economics by final route. Do not call an uninspected, missing or quarantined unit unsellable merely to close a case.
发布商品/渠道规则版本、质检方法、截至日期、分子/分母数量、未知/待定商品与排除原因，并按最终路线报告数量与已实现经济性。不要仅为关闭案例把未质检、缺失或隔离商品称为不可售。
| Input输入项 | Definition定义 | Evidence证据 |

Build unsellable returns control in seven controlled steps通过七个受控步骤建立不可售退货控制
- Define the decision and unit定义决策与单位
Name the decision, case or unit grain, lifecycle start and close event, owner and reporting period for unsellable returns control.为不可售退货控制定义决策、案例或件数粒度、生命周期开始与关闭事件、负责人及报告期间。 - Create stable identity建立稳定身份
Connect authorization, parcel, received unit, original order item, inventory transaction, disposition and finance record without relying on labels alone.连接授权、包裹、实收商品、原订单商品行、库存交易、处置与财务记录，不能仅依赖标签。 - Capture source-native events采集来源原生事件
Retain source state, quantity, timestamp, location and version before adding canonical meaning.增加规范含义前，保留来源状态、数量、时间、地点与版本。 - Measure actual drivers衡量实际驱动
Attach actual invoice, labor, inventory, condition, storage, recovery and exception evidence at the lowest practical grain.在可行的最低粒度关联实际发票、人工、库存、状态、仓储、回收与异常证据。 - Apply governed mappings应用受治理映射
Version event, condition, disposition, cost, valuation and eligibility rules; keep unknown and unmapped values visible.对事件、状态、处置、成本、估值与资格规则版本化，并让未知和未映射值可见。 - Reconcile quantities and money核对数量与资金
Bridge requested, shipped-back, received, inspected, disposed, credited, recovered and written-off quantities and values.桥接申请、寄回、实收、质检、处置、贷记、回收与核销数量和金额。 - Publish coverage and review发布覆盖并复核
Disclose missingness, allocation, estimates, open cases, late arrivals and review status beside the metric.在指标旁披露缺失、分摊、估计、开放案例、迟到与复核状态。
The CSV captures case identity, lifecycle events, quantities, costs or values, evidence type, rule version, disposition, exceptions, coverage and reviewer status.
CSV 采集案例身份、生命周期事件、数量、成本或价值、证据类型、规则版本、处置、异常、覆盖与审核状态。

A synthetic mature receipt cohort contains 1,000 eligible inspected units. Seven hundred pass the intended new-condition channel, 180 fail that channel but qualify for an approved alternate route, 70 require repair, 30 are approved for recycling and 20 remain under unresolved safety or identity hold.
一个模拟成熟实收群组包含 1,000 件合格已质检商品。700 件通过预期新品渠道，180 件未通过该渠道但符合获批替代路线，70 件需要维修，30 件获批回收，20 件仍处于未解决安全或身份锁定。
| State or route状态或路线 | Synthetic units模拟件数 | Share of inspected占质检比例 | Control interpretation控制解读 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pass intended channel通过预期渠道 | 700 | 70.0% | Eligible sellable release符合可售释放 |
| Alternate approved channel获批替代渠道 | 180 | 18.0% | Current-channel unsellable; not waste当前渠道不可售；非废物 |
| Repair pending待维修 | 70 | 7.0% | Blocked until reinspection复检前阻断 |
| Approved recycling获批回收 | 30 | 3.0% | Custody/certificate required需要监管/凭证 |
| Safety or identity hold安全或身份锁定 | 20 | 2.0% | Unknown outcome; do not force-route结果未知；不得强制路由 |
The current-channel unsellable rate is 300 ÷ 1,000 = 30.0%, but only 30 units have an approved recycling outcome and none should be called disposed until custody evidence closes. The 20 held units remain a separate unresolved population.
当前渠道不可售率为 300 ÷ 1,000 = 30.0%，但只有 30 件获批回收，在监管证据关闭前都不能称为已处置。20 件锁定商品仍是独立未解决总体。
All store figures in this worked example are synthetic and exist only to demonstrate the method. They are not InfiniSynapse customer results or industry benchmarks.本计算示例中的商店数据全部为模拟值，仅用于说明方法，不代表 InfiniSynapse 客户结果或行业基准。
Read unsellable status as a controlled decision state把不可售状态视为受控决策状态
A rising rate may reflect real condition deterioration, stricter release criteria, a product-mix shift, better inspection or a newly applied safety hold. Compare matched product and receipt cohorts under the same rule version. Pair rate with unknown/pending share, inspection agreement, aging, route completion, realized recovery, total cost and downstream defects.
比例上升可能来自真实状态恶化、更严格释放标准、商品结构变化、更完善质检或新安全锁定。应在相同规则版本下比较匹配商品与实收群组，并同时查看未知/待定占比、质检一致性、账龄、路线完成、已实现回收、总成本与下游缺陷。
Where the unit is, which lifecycle event occurred, and what remains open.商品在哪里、发生了哪个生命周期事件，以及哪些事项仍未完成。
Observed inspection state with method, evidence, time and reviewer.带方法、证据、时间与审核人的质检观察状态。
Actual, allocated or estimated cost and recovery kept separate with currency.实测、分摊或估计成本与回收价值分开并保留币种。
Eligibility, exception, safety, accounting and data-quality status.资格、异常、安全、会计与数据质量状态。
Do not label a unit “unsellable” to justify a write-off, and do not relabel it “sellable” to avoid one. Classification follows evidence and approved release rules; valuation and accounting entries follow separate qualified controls.
不要为了支持核销把商品标为“不可售”，也不要为了避免核销把它改为“可售”。分类遵循证据与获批释放规则；估值和会计分录遵循另一套合格控制。
Apply six controls before publishing the metric发布指标前应用六项控制
- One case key: connect the return request, parcel, warehouse receipt, disposition, refund, and original order line.统一案例键：连接退货申请、包裹、仓库收货、处置、退款与原始订单行。
- One event policy: declare whether a case begins at request, first carrier scan, receipt, inspection, or refund.统一事件政策：明确案例从申请、首次承运商扫描、收货、质检还是退款开始。
- One currency rule: retain transaction currency, reporting currency, exchange date, and exchange-rate source.统一币种规则：保留交易币种、报告币种、换算日期与汇率来源。
- No silent zeroes: distinguish a measured zero from a missing cost, unknown fee, or unavailable product cost.不把缺失当零：区分实测零值、缺失成本、未知费用和不可用商品成本。
- No double counting: assign every amount to one component and reconcile the component sum to the case total.避免重复计算：每笔金额只能归入一个组成项，并把组成项合计与案例总额对账。
- Evidence labels: mark values as actual, allocated, estimated, benchmark, or synthetic.证据标签：把数值标为实测、分摊、估计、基准或模拟。
Avoid seven unsellable returns control mistakes避免七个不可售退货控制错误
- Using a refund as proof of physical receipt or disposition.把退款当作实体收货或处置证明。
- Joining records by SKU label, amount or date instead of stable identities.按 SKU 标签、金额或日期而非稳定身份关联记录。
- Treating missing cost, condition or outcome as zero.把缺失成本、状态或结果当作零。
- Mixing open and closed cases without an as-of date.在没有截至日期时混合开放与关闭案例。
- Combining actual, allocated and estimated values without evidence labels.在没有证据标签时合并实测、分摊与估计值。
- Changing disposition or valuation rules without versioning history.更改处置或估值规则却不保留历史版本。
- Optimizing one cost while ignoring safety, customer, recovery or accounting outcomes.优化单项成本却忽视安全、客户、回收或会计结果。
Version the source, event, condition, disposition, cost and review contracts. If a material rule change cannot be restated, break the series and explain the boundary.
对来源、事件、状态、处置、成本与审核契约版本化。重大规则变化无法重述时，应断开序列并解释边界。
Improve one verified failure mechanism or recovery route改善一个已核验失败机制或回收路线
Rank cohorts by total units, carrying exposure, age and recoverable opportunity, then inspect the failed requirement and route bottleneck. Test prevention or routing changes only after safety and compliance owners approve the eligible scope.
按总件数、账面风险、账龄与可回收机会排序群组，再检查失败要求与路线瓶颈。只有安全与合规负责人批准合格范围后，才能测试预防或路由变化。
| Signal信号 | Check next下一步检查 | Possible action可能行动 |
|---|---|---|
| Packaging-only failures concentrate仅包装失败集中 | Product integrity, channel disclosure and replacement packaging cost商品完整性、渠道披露与替换包装成本 | Test approved repack or alternate channel测试获批重包或替代渠道 |

A physically received unit is unsellable for a specified channel when it fails that channel’s documented release requirements at the as-of time. Record the exact failed requirement and rule version.当实体实收商品在截至时间未通过指定渠道的文档化释放要求时，它对该渠道不可售。应记录准确失败要求与规则版本。
No. Damage type, product integrity, safety, disclosure, repairability and channel rules matter. Qualified review may support repair or an approved alternate route; unsafe or recalled goods need stricter controls.不是。损坏类型、商品完整性、安全、披露、可维修性与渠道规则都很重要。合格审核可能支持维修或获批替代路线；不安全或召回商品需要更严格控制。
CPSC states that selling recalled products is unlawful in the United States. Use authoritative recall checks and qualified compliance controls; do not rely on appearance or customer reason.CPSC 说明在美国销售召回商品违法。应使用权威召回检查与合格合规控制，不能依赖外观或客户原因。
Divide units failing one documented current-channel release contract by eligible inspected received units in the same mature cohort. Publish pending and unknown units separately.用同一成熟群组中未通过一个文档化当前渠道释放契约的件数，除以合格已质检实收件数，并单列待定与未知。
Use approved product-specific routes such as repair, refurbishment, vendor return, alternate channel, parts recovery, donation, recycling or compliant disposal, with safety, custody, financial and environmental evidence.使用维修、翻新、退回供应商、替代渠道、拆件回收、捐赠、回收或合规处置等获批商品特定路线，并保留安全、监管、财务与环境证据。
