What is the Appeal Feature?

DNR stands for Delivered (but) Not Received. There are instances when a Customer Package shows Delivered but the buyer claims that they did not receive the package. Such packages fall under the DNR category. As part of the Appeal Feature launch in Seller Center, Sellers will see the Appeal Action tab against an Order within Returns Management when TikTok Shop decides to compensate the buyer. The Appeal feature will provide flexibility for the Seller to appeal if they disagree with TikTok Shop's decision. Once the Seller clicks on the Appeal tab, they'll be asked to upload evidence and any additional comments they may want to share.
Once TikTok Shop reviews the Appeal, the Seller will see the Appeal’s outcome and a tool tip explaining it. The Seller will also see the Refund Record tab showing the details of the refund processes.
If TikTok Shop rejects a buyer's DNR claim or decides in favor of both the buyer and Seller, the Appeal action tab will not be visible in Seller Center.
TikTok Shop encourages Sellers to actively use the Appeal feature to reach out to us for DNR-related issues, instead of the current process of raising a general ticket. This will provide dedicated visibility to TikTok Shop on Sellers’ DNR concerns, which we will address as per our governing policies.
