}Refund Invoice
Issue a full refund against a paid invoice by creating a credit note. The invoice stays PAID; the refund is recorded as a child credit note. Accessible to the owning merchant or platform operators. Only works for invoices in PAID status that have not already been refunded. Full refund only — the entire invoice (subtotal + tax) is credited.
