This transaction is used only when a Partial Approval Purchase or a Partial Approval Refund transaction was entered incorrectly and needs to be cancelled.
Note: The correction MUST be processed for the amount of each partial approval within the overall Purchase or Refund transaction, and it must be performed in the same batch as the original transaction. For example, if the overall transaction was $57.75 and two pre-paid credit cards were used for $25 each, then you would need to perform three Purchase Voids; two for $25 each and a third for the remaining $7.75. See Partial Approval Transaction Scenarios for more information.
