Please note that when you submit the claim from the admin site:


  • The resolution status will become To be resolved if you disable the automation feature.
  • The resolution status will become Resolved if you enable the automation feature.


Since for the below example order, the auto-resolve feature for the resolution method was enabled, the claim status was automatically marked as Resolved and the replacement order was created. You can also monitor the claim status with the insurance company to know whether it’s being paid or not.
