How to Recognize External Payments
Sometimes you need or want to give your guests a credit or recognize a payment made outside of Auctria.
Using Record Payment
You can use the Record Payment function and select the Other payment method tab, then select an appropriate type from the drop-down selector.

You can add different payment options as needed; see ∞ Checkout Payment Options for more information on adding addition drop-down options to choose from. Adding details to the Additional Notes field can also be a useful reference.

Recording Credits Using A For Sale Item
Using a specifically created For Sale type item, you can use the Record Purchase with Payment Method set to None. You would enter a negative amount for the credit you want to give and then "force" the transaction through.

Clicking the Try And Force Bid button will process the transaction and give the bidder a credit equal to the amount used.
