Unwind Processing Rules

	Dealers can only unwind an RDR within 90 days of the vehicle sale date. After 90 days, only regional or national staff can unwind an RDR.
	You cannot unwind an RDR on the month end close date. Unwinds submitted on that date will be processed in the next batch process.
	An RDR that is unwound and is marked as "Unwind Pending" cannot be unwound again by the user.
	Any unwind requests that fail the overnight batch processing will be marked as "Unwind Failed". Users may immediately re-submit failed requests.

Unwind Processing Results

	After DBS completes the unwind batch processing, DBS updates the information in the Status column on the RDR History page as follows:
	If the host accepted the unwind request, the status is "Unwound", the vehicle is returned to vehicle inventory, and the vehicle's location status is "Dealer Inventory".
	If the host rejected the unwind request, the status is "Unwind Rejected", the Unwind Reason / Date field shows the rejection message, and there is no change to vehicle inventory.
	If there is no response received from the mainframe, the status is "Unwind Failed". Dealers may immediately re-submit any request with this status.

Unwind Schedule

Unwinds are processed in DBS according to a timed schedule.

2:30 AM to 10 PM (US Central Time):

The unwind request processes during the overnight batch process.
If an "Unwound" response is NOT received from the mainframe, the status of the unwind request changes to "Unwind Failed". Dealers may re-submit an unwind request for RDRs in "Unwind Failed" status.
If the unwind request processes correctly, the status changes to either "Unwound" or "Unwind Rejected."
If the status is "Unwound", the vehicle is returned to vehicle inventory and the request is complete.
If the status is "Unwind Rejected", the dealer may immediately perform another unwind request.

10 PM to 1:30 AM (US Central Time)

RDRs submitted between the hours of 10 PM and 1:30 AM have missed the batch cycle for the current day and will be processed during the next overnight batch cycle. The RDR response would be received the following morning.
Unwind requests received during this time are marked as "Unwind Pending" and cannot be re-submitted for processing until the original request has been processed.
If the unwind request processes correctly, the status changes to either "Unwound" or "Unwind Rejected.
If the status is "Unwound", the vehicle is returned to vehicle inventory and the request is complete.
If the status is "Unwind Rejected", the dealer may immediately perform another unwind request.

1:30 AM to 2:30 AM (US Central Time)

The Unwind action is not available from 1:30 AM Central time to 2:30 AM Central time.
Users will receive a pop-up message that the vehicle cannot be unwound at this time because the mainframe is unavailable.
