Providers can document whether an offline payment has been refunded or voided:

  • Refund: Select this option if the payment was returned to the family

  • Void: Use this option if the payment no longer applies—for example, if a check didn't clear or the payment was logged by mistake

Voiding is recommended if you want to keep a record of the payment but no longer want it to apply to the student's balance. Once voided, the payment will display a status of 'Voided.'
