Thank you. It was a merchant services transaction so I had to reverse the charge via my merchant account and create a credit memo.

This keeps happening to me, please help...

When I do a Refund Receipt this pops up. I have no idea why this is happening.

Thank you for any help!

This transaction didn’t go through

The payment didn’t go through, but don’t worry. Either too much time went by, or there was a glitch on our side. Please enter the payment info again.

Please try again. If the problem persists, please contact us.

I'll help you get rid of that error, BlaineSupply.

QuickBooks Online utilizes browser cache and cookies to load the pages faster. At times, these files accumulate and become corrupted causing runtime errors in the program. To rule this out, you can open your QBO account in a private window. You may use these shortcut keys:

Ctrl + Shift + N for Google Chrome
Ctrl + Shift + P for Firefox & Microsoft Edge
Command + Shift + N for Safari

Once you're in, create a refund receipt again. If you're now the error is now gone, go back to your regular browser and then clear its cache to improve your browsing experience. You may also use other supported browsers as an alternative.

I'm also adding this article to learn the different ways of issuing a refund to a customer in QBO: Record a customer refund.

Keep me posted if you need more help in managing your other customer transactions. Have a good one.

We also have no idea as to the name of the card holder. We only know that it is a Visa and have the last four numbers on the card.
