Indeed.. regarding item #4.. I think that what would be better and keep folks out of the code is to add this to the admin menu where folks can select from existing statuses in their store. This would keep folks "out of the code" and make it easier to implement.. I know the change to make in the install SQL to add this option..

something like this should do the trick:
Code:
INSERT INTO configuration VALUES (NULL, 'Auto Status - RMA', 'AUTO_STATUS_RMA', '2', 'Number of the order status assigned when an RMA is submitted.', @t4, 5, now(), now(), 'zen_get_order_status_name', 'zen_cfg_pull_down_order_statuses(');
Not so sure what the code below have to look like to use the selected status.. HELP!!

I am thinking this should have a ADMIN control where the status_id can be entered for all sites will differ depending on how many order statuses they currently have.

Here is the UPDATED and at the moment FINAL CODE

1.) lets create a button
1.A) /includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/button_names.php

ADD:

PHP Code:
define('BUTTON_RMA_REQUEST''button_rma_request.png');
define('BUTTON_RMA_REQUEST_ALT''Request an RMA#'); 
1.b) upload your button
/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/buttons/english

2. lets add the button to the My Account > History > Order Info page
2.A) /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/templates/tpl_account_history_info_default.php

I added my button at the end of the file right after the <br class="clearBoth" /> and closing </div>

ADD:
PHP Code:
<div class="rmaRequestButton"><?php echo '<a href="' zen_href_link(FILENAME_RETURNS, (isset($_GET['page']) ? 'page=' $_GET['page'] . '&' '') . 'order_id=' $_GET['order_id'], 'SSL') . '">' zen_image_button(BUTTON_RMA_REQUEST) . '</a>'?></div>
3.) /includes/modules/pages/returns/header_php.php

find:
PHP Code:
    $order_number zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['order_number']); 
below that ADD:
PHP Code:
    $rma_number zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['rma_number']); 
then find:
PHP Code:
"Order Number:" "\t" $order_number "<br />" 
below that ADD:
PHP Code:
"RMA Number:" "\t" $rma_number "<br />" 
then find:
zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_RETURNS, 'action=success'));

CHANGE TO:

PHP Code:
      zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_RETURNS'action=success' '&order_id=' $order_number)); 
then find:
PHP Code:
  $city $check_customer->fields['entry_city']; 
below that ADD:
PHP Code:
$cID $check_customer->fields['customers_id']; 
then find:
PHP Code:
  $postcode $check_customer->fields['entry_postcode'];

below that ADD:
PHP Code:
$customer_info_query "SELECT customers_id
                        FROM   " 
TABLE_ORDERS "
                        WHERE  orders_id = :ordersID"
;

$customer_info_query $db->bindVars($customer_info_query':ordersID'$_GET['order_id'], 'integer');
$customer_info $db->Execute($customer_info_query);

$order_number $_GET['order_id'];
$rma_request_date date('mdY');
$rma_number $order_number TEXT_SUCCESS_DASH $cID TEXT_SUCCESS_DASH $rma_request_date
Now in /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/templates/tpl_returns_default.php
find:
PHP Code:
<?php if (RETURN_STORE_NAME_ADDRESS == 'true') { ?>
<address><?php echo nl2br(STORE_NAME_ADDRESS); ?></address>
<?php ?>

<?php
  
if (isset($_GET['action']) && ($_GET['action'] == 'success')) {
?>

<br class="clearBoth" />
<div class="mainContent success"><?php echo TEXT_SUCCESS?></div>

<?php
  
} else {
?>
CHANGE TO:
PHP Code:
<?php if (RETURN_STORE_NAME_ADDRESS == 'true' && ($_GET['action'] == 'success')) { ?>
<?php

} else if (RETURN_STORE_NAME_ADDRESS == 'true') { ?>

<?php
  
if (isset($_GET['action']) && ($_GET['action'] == 'success')) {

<?php
$orderID 
$_GET['order_id'];
$db->Execute("update " TABLE_ORDERS " set orders_status = '5', last_modified = now() where orders_id = '" . (int)$orderID "'");
?>
<?php
  
} else {
?>
The Number 5 represents the order status ID in ADMIN > LOCALIZATION > ORDERS STATUS

ADD "Pending Return", look at your browser page link - you will see oID=#, that # needs to replace the above 5


then find:
PHP Code:
<br class="clearBoth" />
<?php
  
if (RETURN_ITEM_NAME == 'true') {
?>
ABOVE the <br class="clearBoth" />
ADD:
PHP Code:
<?php  echo '<input type="hidden" name="rma_number" value="'.$rma_number.'">'?>
then open /includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/returns.php
