Publication
Publication
In this article, we discuss ways of actively influencing product returns and we review data-driven methods for forecasting return flows that exploit the fact that future returns are a function of past sales. In particular we assess the value of return forecasting at an operational level, specifically inventory control. We conclude with implications for supply chain management.
