Create credit memos from return order segments for finance

Automatically monitor orders table updates across SQL Server and Zapier Tables for return indicators and ERP order IDs. Create and update credit memos in NetSuite when return flags are true or error statuses appear, so you can transfer returns, log outcomes, and update records without manual reconciliation.
