# Refund Settlement

Refund Settlements are used to write Checks to a Buyer who has Credit on their Account. Refund checks may be written for 'Credits' resulting from the following transactions:

**[Buy Settle](https://cam3-wiki.auctionstreaming.com/books/cams-3-wiki-faq/page/vehicle-settle-buy-settle-and-sell-settle-orders)** with an Over-payment   
**[No Sale](https://cam3-wiki.auctionstreaming.com/books/cams-3-wiki-faq/page/no-sale)** order when the buyer's check has been deposited

<span style="background-color: #f1c40f;">**Note: Refund checks may not be issued for any other reason than those listed above. You may not issue a negative Adjustment to a buyer's account and then write a Refund check for the balance.**</span>

- Open the Buyer account of the vehicle you wish to execute the Refund Settlement on.
- Select the 'Refund Settlement' order from the Account Tab of the [**Dealer Profile**](https://cam3-wiki.auctionstreaming.com/books/cams-3-wiki-faq/page/dealer-profile) and click to launch the form.

- Select the Check of the Refund
