Scheduling a make up payment
When a transaction is declined, Rotessa will not retry it automatically. You'll need to schedule a new one-time transaction to make up for the declined amount.
Creating a new transaction manually
- Go to the Customers page of your Rotessa account and select New.
- Select New Transaction, then Manually.
- Search for and select the customer you'd like to schedule the transaction for.
- Fill in the following fields:
- Amount — the amount you and your customer have agreed to debit.
- Frequency — select Once.
- Process Date — the date the payment will be pulled from your customer's account.
- Comment — optional notes for your records, such as "Make up for declined rent" or "Retry of Invoice 0231."
- Select Submit. Your transaction is now scheduled.
Note: A transaction created in advance of the process date will have a status of Future. Transactions can only be edited or deleted before the status changes to Sent to Bank.
Making up for a declined invoice import
If the declined transaction was created from an invoice imported from QuickBooks Online or Xero, you have two options:
Option 1 — Create a new invoice in QuickBooks Online or Xero
Create a new invoice in QuickBooks Online or Xero for the declined amount and import it into Rotessa. Note that once an invoice has been imported and processed, it cannot be re-imported; a new invoice is required.
Option 2 — Create a manual transaction in Rotessa
Manually create a one-time transaction in Rotessa for the declined amount. If you go this route, you'll need to manually mark the original invoice as paid in QuickBooks Online or Xero.
