Deposits that are not completely used for the services rendered should be automatically refunded to the client at that order completion.
Or perhaps give businesses the option to enable this. Right now we are over quoting most deposit services just so that there is no shock with pricing on checkout. But with boulevard we are unknowingly making our clients think we are holding onto their deposits for selfish reasons. An option to have the remaining deposits refunded to the customers on this checkout would be great, also a prompt on the ipad letting them know this. Or perhaps an option presented to the client, "would you like the remaining deposit refunded to your original payment method, or would you like the deposit to be kept in your account as a credit for your future visits?"
At current we are getting client calls about their deposit refunds and our staff are totally unaware of this. Process is to find original order and refund a partial amount of the deposit that was unused. This process is fairly manual and daunting to give to clerical staff to manage.
