Credits, Refunds and Returned Money: Feature Acceptance Suite ​

What the Feature Must Do as a Whole ​

Finance can retain available money as credit, return it through an accountable request or record that a receipt did not remain. Acceptance follows the same source value through those competing uses.

Interactions Between Capabilities ​

Credit creation reduces source availability and protects the receipt from reversal. Refund reservation excludes competing spending until cancellation, failure or payment resolves the request.

Regression Record ​

Revision one establishes the initial cumulative suite. Later changes revisit dependent scenarios, and retired scenarios retain their identities and reasons.

Scenarios

5 scenarios proving FEAT-ACC-TRX-04 as a whole.

01 Held money can become credit or return without double spending behaviour proposed
