Advertiser Part Cancelled Orders
From Wiki
Part cancelled order
A part cancelled order is an order which may have been part cancelled by the customer.
It’s fair practice to re-commission the publisher with the remaining approved transaction amount.
In a situation like this, we would advise advertisers to decline the whole order but re-add in a “manual commission” via the advertiser interface.
Example
Let’s assume that a customer has bought 2 items in one order. The customer may then refund 1 product within the money back guarantee time (14 days or 28 days, which ever is stated in your Terms & Conditions) from that order but keep the other.
- Order Ref: ORD1234
- Items bought: Hair Straighter (10.00) & Shampoo (10.00)
- Total Order Value: 20.00
- Date of Order: 01/08/2009
You system will need to check the order ref after the 14/28 day money back guarantee has been exceeded. If one of the products (e.g. Hair Straighter 10.00) in the order has been refunded, then this would be considered a part decline order.
