NetSuite - Payment refunds

Once a payment has been paid out, it’s eligible to be refunded back to the customer’s bank account through GoCardless. GoCardless supports full and partial refunds, and you can read more about enabling this feature here.

To initiate a refund through NetSuite, you’ll create a credit memo against the relevant invoice, and populate the below fields. 


Note: the invoice must have a “paid out” payment against it on the “GoCardless > Transaction information” subtab.
