How to process an offline refund to an online refund that was initiated accidentally?
Do we have an option to transfer the incorrect offline refund to online?
Summary
In order to process the recorded offline refund to an online refund, we need to delete the Transaction and the Credit Note issued for the offline refund and then we can revert back to the same payment and process an online refund.
Note: This is applicable only if the initial payment source was online.
With the help of "The line items' billing period on the invoice" settings, the service period for the line items in the credit notes will be the same as their respective billing periods on the invoice.
Navigate to Settings > Configure Chargebee > Billing LogIQ > Billing & Invoices > Set default service period for credit note line items. Please refer to this link for more information.
