Issue Credit for a Transaction


Credits can be issued through the Transaction Details function.  When they are issued, Doubleknot uses a unique number that identifies the card holder account to our bank.  This way the original credit card number is not needed to process a full or partial refund.  When a credit is issued, an email receipt is sent to the cardholder if their email address was supplied at the time of payment.  A copy of the email is sent to the person performing the credit transaction.  Credits cannot be issued for transactions greater than 180 days old. 

Please refer to Field Definitions for a description of each field/column for the Account Transaction Summary,  Transaction Detail, and Issue Credit pages.
