Still receiving CONSUMPTION_REQUEST after receive REFUND request

Hi, recently our system received many CONSUMPTION_REQUEST after receive REFUND request for some transaction. EX: we have one transaction wants to refund, and our system receives the first CONSUMPTION_REQUEST at 10th Oct and receives the REFUND request after two days(12th Oct), there is no CONSUMPTION_REQUEST coming between those time, and after that, we recieve many CONSUMPTION_REQUEST between 13th Otc to now. Not sure if it this is what Apple excepted, because we are not found the document related to this. Why we post this question is for our system, what we always faced is there is no CONSUMPTION_REQUEST coming after receive the REFUND request before.

If the notification failed to send the first time, you may be observing retries, which can occur after the REFUND has completed.

  • Just to clarify a bit more, we have successfully received the consumption request from apple everytime AND get refund request as well. However, apple server is continue to send us consumption request. we can not see the notification failed to send in our side.

  • Also have another question, how can we know the response(send the consumption data to App Store) send successfully? because we found even we set the in-app purchase is full consumed in the response which send to App Store, the following consumption request notification is still coming and also can receive the REFUND notification.
