Add Line Items

You can process an electronic payment, refund, external payment, donation, or add a miscellaneous line item in the Account tab of a profile.

• Payment. Charge a new payment method or saved payment method.
• Refund. Initiate a refund to a saved payment method.
• Please note that once an electronic refund is processed back to a credit card or bank account, it may take up to 5-7 business days before it will appear on the card holder’s account.
• Refunds can only be processed if the payment method used to make the original transaction is a saved payment method on file for the user. If this payment method is not on file, you can issue refunds externally, add the saved payment method on behalf of the user, or reach out to the user directly to add their payment method into the system. It’s important to note that if you add a saved payment method on behalf of a user, they will receive an email notifying them of the change to their account.
• External Payment. Record cash or paper check payments you receive on your own, and that are not processed through our application.
• Donation. Add a donation line item amount to the participant's account.
• Miscellaneous. Record additional positive or negative adjustments, like scholarships, that are not tracked by add-ons or coupons.

To add a line item:

1. In the participant’s profile, click the Account tab.
2. Click the ADD LINE ITEM button.
3. In the submenu that appears, click the type of line item that you want to add.
4. In the Amount box, type the amount of the transaction.
5. Add any other necessary information, and then click the SUBMIT button.

Important: Line Items cannot be deleted. If a mistake is made, a new Line Item must be added to correct the error.
