If a payment went through under the wrong RO or invoice number, DealerWorks can correct it for you. It isn’t something you can change from your own screens — write in to Support and we’ll do it.
Write in to Support
Send us the details below and we’ll change the number on the transaction.
| FIND IT | Look the payment up first so you have the details in front of you. See Find a payment. |
| SEND US | The invoice or RO number the payment is under, the amount, and the date. If the number is the part that’s wrong, the amount and date are how we find it. |
| AND | What it should say instead. Exactly as you want it to read. |
This corrects the number in DealerWorks only. Your DMS still shows the original. DealerWorks doesn’t write invoice or RO numbers back to a DMS, so if it’s wrong there too, it has to be fixed in your DMS separately.
Why you can’t change it yourself
It depends on where the number came from, but the answer is the same either way.
- If your dealership is connected to a DMS, the order information comes straight from your DMS. The number can’t be edited in Process Transactions, because it isn’t yours to type.
- If you’re not connected to a DMS, the advisor types the number in when the payment is taken — the same goes for anything taken with the Manual Payment button. Once the payment has gone through, it’s set.
If the amount is wrong rather than the number
On a connected order you’re asked to check the amount against your DMS before the payment goes through, and you can correct it at that point. Afterwards it’s a Support request too — see Edit a cash or check transaction.
The change is recorded
Whatever we change is logged on the transaction itself, showing who made the edit and what it said before — see See what’s been changed on a transaction.
