This document details the dispute and resolution process in the Vaultix mobile application.
If there is a conflict in an escrow (e.g. non-delivery, poor quality), either the depositor or recipient can raise a dispute.
Actions:
- User navigates to the Escrow Detail screen.
- User taps Raise Dispute.
- A modal appears warning the user: "Opening a dispute pauses escrow actions."
- User provides a Reason and Description.
Once a dispute is raised, the escrow is frozen. The following actions are disabled:
- Releasing milestones
- Approving deliveries
- Canceling the escrow
The dispute enters the OPEN or UNDER_REVIEW state. An administrator or arbitrator will review the details and make a decision.
When the dispute is resolved, the status changes to RESOLVED (or REJECTED if invalid).
A Resolution Summary is shown on the Escrow Detail screen detailing:
- The Admin's decision
- The designated Winner
- Final Payouts for both parties
