# Invoicing for Cancellations and Payouts

In terms of invoicing, there are two kinds of transactions that stand out:

* For payouts, you create [regular invoices](/creditguard/documents-and-invoicing/issuing-invoices.md) with the `addCgInvoice` command.
* For cancellations, you create [refund invoices](/creditguard/documents-and-invoicing/refund-invoices.md) with the `refundCgInvoice` command.

## Cancellations

There is no such thing as a "cancellation invoice".

When a transaction is canceled, you account for it by issuing a [refund invoice](/creditguard/documents-and-invoicing/refund-invoices.md) that matches the original transaction invoice but is a credit rather than a debit.

Although there are separate commands for canceling and refunding (`cancelDeal` and `refundDeal`), there is only one command for document generation: `refundCgInvoice`.

## Payouts

[Payouts](/creditguard/additional-payment-scenarios/payouts.md) are credit transactions in which you pay the customer, regardless of the original payment.

For invoicing purposes, payouts are handled [just like regular transactions](/creditguard/documents-and-invoicing/issuing-invoices.md): you use the `addCgInvoice` command with the payout’s transaction ID (`tranId`).

The `refundCgInvoice` command does not apply to payouts: even though a payout is a credit transaction, it does not require a refund invoice.
