About this template
What This Workflow Does
Product complaints sit in shared inboxes while agents open photos, check invoices and wait for a manager decision. This template reads complaint emails in Microsoft Outlook, sends attached images to OpenAI over HTTP for defect review, checks the SAP Business One invoice against the return period, and routes each case to replacement, credit note, repair or manual review.
Key benefits
- AI photo review — Attached images are analyzed for damage before anyone opens them.
- Warranty gate — Claims outside the return period are rejected with an automatic email.
- Stock-aware outcome — Replacements go out only when SAP Business One shows stock; otherwise a credit note path is used.
- Human review when unclear — Unclear cases go to a service manager with the AI summary.
Inside the flow
How the template works
The flow reads complaint emails from the Outlook inbox, sends image attachments to OpenAI for defect review and fetches the SAP Business One invoice to check the return period. A decision step then routes the case to replacement, credit note, repair or manual review, and the customer gets an email with the outcome.
Review photos with AI
Image attachments are sent to OpenAI over HTTP, and the findings are structured as JSON.
Check the return period
appse ai fetches the SAP Business One invoice; claims outside the return period get a rejection email.
Decide the resolution
A decision step combines the AI findings and invoice data to choose replacement, credit note, repair or manual review.
Create SAP Business One documents
For replacements, item stock is checked; with stock a return and delivery note are created, without stock a return with credit is used.
Notify the customer
Outlook sends the customer or the service manager an email with the outcome and next steps.
Business Benefits

Protected stock and margin
