Aaron Aldrich Updated by Aaron Aldrich

As of now this is a three step process to fix it in shopVOX, Authorize.net and Quick Books.

Record Refund in shopVOX

Follow these steps to refund in shopVOX

First make sure the payment is adjusted to make sure there is enough balance to refund.  To do this , go to the payment click on the edit icon (Pencil) and then on the invoice below to which this payment was applied, adjust it so that there is enough balance left for a refund.

  1. If you have an invoice for $1000, and you had a payment for $1000 and you applied it all to this invoice, then the balance left to refund is $0.
  2. So when you edit the payment, if you want to refund the $200 then on the invoice Paid Amount field, make it 800 and hit save.
  3. Now if you see your payment details, it is payment for $1000, you applied $800 to this invoice and there is a Balance of $200 left on this invoice.
