Shopify has a "Restock items" checkbox for admin refunds, but API integrations and returns apps set restocking programmatically. UnRestock provides one store-wide control for reversing restocked refund lines.
The checkbox can't catch all of them.
When a refund restocks damaged or unsellable goods, those units become available for sale again unless the inventory change is corrected.
Automated returns portals and fulfilment integrations create refunds programmatically, outside the admin refund screen and its checkbox.
Shopify doesn't log whether a restock was intentional or accidental. If inventory is wrong, you're guessing why.
Monitors refunds from Shopify and reverses restocked lines automatically while protection is enabled. Recent corrections appear in the activity log.
Handles restocked refund lines created through Shopify admin, API integrations, returns apps, and POS.
Corrections are logged with the item and timestamp, and the 20 most recent events appear in the app.
Expecting a genuine return? Turn protection off temporarily. It's your inventory — you're in control.
