Credit Memo Generated from RMA version 2013 (5.00) and later
The steps are the same as for Processing Refund for Version 2013 (5.00) and later except for the majority of the fields are populated from RMA. Follow steps 5-11 to complete the Credit Memo.

 

Additional information: 

  • The credit card transaction must be settled on the virtual terminal first. If the credit is on the same day as the original entry, verify the SPS batch has been settled first.
  • The credit card would need to be saved. Unsaved cards will need to be reentered on the credit memo (credit card tab) to issue the refund.
  • The original sale or charge must not be expired (over 6 months old)
  • The original sale or charge must have been entered using Sage Payment Solutions and not a different credit card processor, such as PC Charge.
  • If the refund was manually processed on the virtual terminal; do not enter a value in the 'apply to inv' field. Instead complete the credit memo and post without this information. Use a zero dollar, cash receipt to manually apply the posted memo to the original invoice.
