Hi there,
I am having trouble figuring out a situation. I had an order for which the customer paid a deposit, but she made two deposits via Paypal and credit card. I had to cancel the order due to an illness. I refunded her the deposit via Zelle because I did not want to refund each deposit due to the transaction fee for each deposit. I will record the Zelle refund as a credit memo, but what should I do with the remaining balance of the invoice? Should I void it? Thank you.
