How do I collect a returned unpaid debit order?
Important Note:
You can only recollect unpaid items if the payment error is a non-permanent error, such as insufficient funds or payment stopped by account holder. You can not recollect unpaid items if the payment error is a permanent error such as account closed, account does not exist, card expired, etc. For permanent errors, you must add new bank or card details and then try to send for payment again.
To recollect unpaid items due to a non-permanent error:
- Find the unpaid invoice on the Invoice Management screen. See Accounting > Invoice Management.
- Click Actions > Select – Add/Move to batch. If there is not a suitable batch, create one as described under Create Invoice Batch.
- Send the batch for payment as described under Send for Payment.
How do I Process Refunds?
You can refund all or part of an invoice payment as follows:
-
- Unallocate the receipt. See How to Fix receipting Errors for details.
- Create a credit note against the invoice. See How to Create a Credit Note for details.
At this stage, the account balance in Billdozer will be in credit and a bank refund will be performed. Once the bank refund has been completed, continue with step 3 below.
- Create an adjustment and allocate it against an unallocated receipt. See How to Create a CR Adjustment for details.
