What is Cancelling Payments

In CRM.COM once a Financial Transaction is created, then it can not be deleted, regardless of its Life Cycle State. In cases where the Payment's Life Cycle State is still Draft then the Payment can be rejected. See Rejecting Draft Financial Transactions.

In case where the Payment has already been posted then it will need to be cancelled in order not to affect the account balance of the customer. Cancelling a Payment will create another Financial Transaction of Classification Payment Cancellation and will allocate it against the Payment
