This applies to the following scenarios:
The booking is to be cancelled with no refund to the full payment.
A partial refund has already been processed via RBE, however, the remaining balance is not to be refunded and the booking is to be cancelled.
No refund is initiated in ResPax or via the client’s Payment Gateway.
The booking has to be balanced for RBE to allow the cancellation request.
Refer to the Partial Refund (Remaining Balance) process for guidance on how to proceed.
Start with Step 3.
However, for Step 4, choose “POB” for Collect By and “On Account” for Payment Type.
| Note |

Note that the negative "POB>On Account" payment type does not reflect in the Reconciliation Report which means it will not affect the "balancing" of the report. |
Thereafter, refer to the Cancellation Process to cancel the booking.

There are bookings with a “Partially Paid” payment status due to a deposit collected as a payment at the time of the booking. Note that the deposit is usually a percentage (i.e. 20%) of the booking total. For this type of booking, the remaining balance is represented by a payment placeholder (generally a POB>On Account).
Refunding deposits paid via a payment gateway (credit card) follows the same process as Partial Refunds. Follow the process until Step 8 and continue on to Step 9 below.

There are bookings with more than one payment type. For example, below is a booking with a deposit paid via credit card with the remaining balance represented by a payment placeholder (POB > On Account).
...
For refundable payment types such as credit card (payment gateway), EFTPOS, direct deposit and manual credit card (staff only), please refer to the Full Refund process.
For the remaining balance or the other payment type, click on the placeholder payment line (i.e. POB > On Account) representing the remaining balance.
Click on the “Delete” button. RBE will trigger a pop-message for staff to “Confirm” the request before completely deleting the payment.
In most cases, the booking is to be cancelled. Please refer to the Cancellation Process for guidance.
