How To Void a Transaction

  2. Select a search option and then enter the search information. 
  3. Review the transaction information. To Confirm Reversal:
    1. Select Yes or Accept to reverse the full amount, removing the transaction from the batch and releasing the hold on the funds. 
    2. If partial reversals are an option, the screen displays Accept or Change. Select Accept the reverse the full amount or select Change to reverse a partial amount and then enter the reversal amount. Change releases the hold on unneeded funds. 
    3. Select No to cancel the reversal attempt.
