Abstract: Reverse logistics(RL) plays a pivotal role in managing the lifecycle of products, encompassing returns, repairs, and recycling. By integrating Machine Vision (MV) technologies with SAP’s Business Technology Platform (BTP), industries can redefine return processing workflows, achieving improved accuracy, efficiency, and automation. This paper explores the technical intricacies of MV camera systems and their possible seamless integration with SAP BTP that aid the reverse logistics dispositioning. A methodology is provided, along with an examination of challenges, solutions, and potential impacts in industrial scenarios. The framework presented herein addresses pressing challenges in reverse logistics while paving the way for advanced engineering.
