Overview of AR60

DDI’s Refunds function issues a payment to a customer against a non-zero open credit balance. It does so by creating a check, bank wire, or credit-card payment.


Note: If you want to issue a refund to a customer without an open credit balance, this can be done through the use of a miscellaneous credit. Set up the miscellaneous credit in Receipts Entry, then issue the refund against it.


  • From the DDI Connect main menu, double-click Accounts Receivable
  • Double-click Refunds Entry. You will see this screen:
