# Confirm Your Returns Processing Method

The exact method for your impact.com account was configured during onboarding — to verify which method you use, follow the steps below.

1. From the top navigation bar, select ![](/files/2qeX6EqajzdOPiwzfeV5) **\[User profile] → Settings**.
2. In the right column, go to the *Tracking* section and select **Event Types**.
3. Find your event type in the list and select ![](/files/mQTDSmR70Q3Eybmgev6e) **\[More] → View / Edit**.
4. Navigate to **Returns Processing**.
5. The radio dial selected will indicate your account's return processing method:
   1. **Upload file to system FTP server:**\
      impact.com emails the account owner with unique credentials to an FTP server where you can upload a .CSV/.XML file with your action modification and reversals. If you need your credentials resent, select **Email FTP Username and Password**. If you haven't received your credentials, [contact support](https://app.impact.com/support/portal.ihtml?createTicket=true).
   2. **Pull file from your own FTP server:**\
      You can provide connection details and credentials to your own FTP server that impact.com can use to connect and pull your batch .csv or .xml modifications and reversals file. impact.com will attempt to pull this file every 4 hours. If you don't already have an FTP server configured, we recommend using the upload or email option.
   3. **Email file to system SMTP server:**\
      impact.com provides a unique email address to which you can send your batch modifications and reversals file as an attachment, which is displayed here. You can add this unique email address as a contact in your email provider.
6. When you're done, select **Cancel** to ensure you don't make any accidental changes.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/submit-and-modify-conversion-data/confirm-your-returns-processing-method.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
