While these do not automatically update invoices or the payment summary, the related transaction entry will show the updated status — **Refunded** or **Partially Refunded.** - **Maintaining positive balances:** Totals are always maintained as positive values to ensure accurate accounting and prevent inconsistencies. These behaviors ensure transparency, traceability, and consistency in booking financial management. --- ## **Frequently Asked Questions** **Q: Can I modify a paid invoice?** You can make edits as long as the updated total remains greater than or equal to the amount already paid.  **Q: What happens if I edit a partially paid booking?** You can edit a partially paid booking, provided the new total remains equal to or higher than the amount already paid. The changes reflect back in the latest invoice. **Q: How do refunds affect the booking?** Refunds are processed manually from the Transactions section. They won’t change the invoice or payment summary totals, but the transaction will update to show **Refunded** or **Partially Refunded.** **Q: What happens when I add new items after a booking is paid in full?** The existing invoice is updated automatically to record the new charges. **Q: Can totals ever go below zero?** No, totals are always kept positive to maintain accurate and traceable financial records. --- ## **Related Articles** - [Understanding Listings & Categories](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-listings-categories) [ ](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-create-edit-listings) - [Create & Edit Listings](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-create-edit-listings) - [Configuring Pricing & Discounts](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-configuring-pricing-discounts) - [Global Settings in Rentals](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-global-settings) - [Calendar View for Rentals](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-calendar-view) - [Overview of Bookings](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-overview-of-bookings) - [Creating a Booking](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/rentals/rentals-creating-a-booking) --- Documentation for GHL Customer Care.
