Credit Memos

A credit memo is a document that shows the amount that is due the customer for a full or partial refund. The amount can be applied toward a purchase or refunded to the customer. For details about the refund workflow, see Returns.

You can print a credit memo for a single order, or for multiple orders as a batch. Before a credit memo can be printed, it must first be generated for the order. The Credit Memos grid lists the credit memos that have been issued to customers.

• An order that was paid by credit card through a payment gateway is refunded online by the payment processor.
