How do I enter the refund against a recent purchase?
Your scenario is that you have purchased an item which was subsequently returned and you received a refund.Β So, how do you enter the refund against the purchase?
Because Clubtreasurer manages cash-flows (ie. cash in / cash out) it is important to enter both transactions.Β
The easiest way to enter the refund is to open the original Payment transaction and reverse it by clicking the βReverseβ Β button. This will create a mirror transaction that reverses out the original transaction whilst also maintaining an audit trail (ie. you will have 2 transactions in your accounts).
The Reverse function ensures the reversal is charged to the same Cost Code / Account etc..Β Editing is limited but you can edit the date you received the refund, the account it was paid into, and update the comments.
