DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES (KPA) DESCRIPTION
- Achieve daily / weekly and monthly targets.
- Sell and promote B-stock items, as well as know the policy surrounding this: o There is a misconception that B-stock items may not be returned. This is incorrect. The B-stock item has a Tax invoice attached to it when it is purchased, thus CPA rules

1. Sales apply. o This means that if the customer wants to return the unit within the 7-day period that Decofurn offers for a return, that commitment needs to be honoured (As long as the unit is returned in the condition it was sold in). o Albeit Decofurn gives no direct warranty on B-stock items, the CPA states that all goods purchased carry a 6-month return option.
