Field Routes: Reverse a payment

Use Reverse (formerly “Clear”) to cancel a transaction on the Customer Card without returning funds. This is useful when funds fail to process fully — for example, because of an expired card or insufficient funds. Reversing removes the payment record from the Customer Card.

Caution:

If a payment is reversed when a refund was intended, the refund can no longer be processed in FieldRoutes. It must be handled directly through the Merchant Portal.

  1. Select the payment from the Payments list.

  2. Select Reverse.

  3. Review the reminder message confirming that this action cancels the payment in the customer record only and does not initiate anything through the payment system.

  4. Select OK.

Important:

Creating and refunding an Existing Transaction after a reversal does not return funds to the customer. This is not a valid substitute for a Merchant Portal refund.
