IOUs are issued to customers who are unable to pay for a service on the day of the appointment. Once an IOU is created, it is added to a customer's profile and included in all IOU reports so you can collect payment later.
To manage IOUs for a particular customer, start on the Customer Management page.

Select a customer from the drop-down list.

Click the Action menu (3 vertical dots) to select an action for this IOU.
Choices are Edit, Void, and Pay.

Use Edit to change the IOU comment and save it.

On the Checkout screen, process payment for the IOU and complete the checkout process.

No... to return a product bought with an IOU to inventory, you must refund the IOU transaction from the Transaction list. In that process, there's a "return to stock" option for the product, which also voids the IOU.
does voiding an IOU also void the item it "paid for"?
