Follow these steps when using the Web Version to automatically refund a client who has prepaid for a service or class. You can configure automatic refunds in Online Appointment Rules by selecting the Customers Can Cancel option. You'll then see an option to give an automatic refund.
If the automatic refund option is turned off, you can manually refund from the Calendar screen or the Customer Profile. Select a prepaid appointment to begin the process. A dollar icon indicates a prepaid appointment.
When refunding the service, you can send an email to the client informing them of the reason for the refund. You can also email or print a copy of the receipt.
If you choose not to refund a customer, you will be required to enter a reason for denying, cancelling, or deleting the appointment before sending the notification.
