Vendor Credit Refund Match Check

Check that a vendor credit and its refund net correctly instead of sitting unapplied. Preparation only, not an account action.

What to provide

Vendor credit record, refund record and the accounts they hit.

How it works

1. Record the vendor credit amount and account.
2. Record the refund amount and account.
3. Check that the credit is applied against the refund.
4. Return the match review without posting changes.

The output

vendor | credit_amount | refund_amount | applied | unapplied_balance

Worked fictional example

Fictional vendor credit of 300 sits unapplied while a 300 refund posted as income: the pair should net to zero, so 300 of income is overstated until the credit is applied.

Checks and limits

Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
