Read order, cancel, refund, exchange, recapture. Tick the boxes on paper before you tick them in software.

Short pages, one decision, dates in the first line. Blog posts do not belong in the retrieval set.

Tags are for routing and reporting. If the agent cannot tag WISMO vs refund, your dashboard is folklore.

Chargeback mentions end the automation. The agent collects the order facts and stops talking about goodwill credits.

Tag VIPs, raise refund caps, skip the chatbot maze, and escalate faster — without building a second helpdesk.
