Delete vs Void vs Negative vs Refund

  • Deleting a disbursement – Should only be done if the check was not printed (i.e., data entry error that was not printed or reported)

  • Voiding a disbursement – Should only be done if the check was printed, but not disbursed or reported. (i.e., jammed in printer, changed mind, etc.)

  • Negative disbursement – Should only be done if the check was disbursed and reported, but was not cashed.

  • Refund of a disbursement – Should only be done if the check was cashed, but later refunded by the committee.
