You can refund a payment using a different payment method than that of the original payment. For example, if you want to refund a cash purchase with debit.
To refund a payment using a different payment method, complete the following:
- Open the Customer Services application from the AudienceView Desktop.
- Select the Order tab.
The Order|Search page appears.
- Search for and select the order that you want to work with. For more information, refer to Searching for an Order.
The Order|Summary page appears.
- Click 'Add Payment'.
The Payments dialog box appears.
- Select the desired payment from the 'Payment Method' dropdown.
The Payments dialog box refreshes to display applicable information. The default 'Payment Amount' is the amount overpaid on the order.
- Verify the 'Payment Amount' and make any modifications, if required.
Do not include a negative sign (-) with the amount.
- If not selected, select Refund from the 'Payment Transaction Type' dropdown.
- Complete the payment details or swipe the card if applicable.
For more information on specific payment methods, refer to:
- Click 'Add Payment'.
The Payment dialog box closes and the Order|Summary page becomes active. An Unprocessed Refund is added to the order. Before saving, you can delete the partial refund by clicking 'Delete'.
- Click 'Apply'.
A window confirms that the application updated the order.
- Click 'OK'.
The Unprocessed Refund record changes to a Refund state. The original payment remains on the order.
