Cancelling Balance Transfer Requests

As a Requester, you cannot edit your Balance Transfer requests between Jack accounts once it has been submitted. If any changes are urgently required, the Approver/Releaser can reject the transaction and Requester can proceed to create a new request.

The requester, who typically acts as the Bookkeeper but could also be the Business Owner or Admin depending on the workflow setup, has the ability to cancel a submitted Balance Transfer request between Jack accounts within a specific time frame. The cancellation window remains open until the Releaser releases the transfer or you can cancel your submitted transaction before the Transaction Status changes to In Progress. It's crucial to act promptly if you wish to cancel a transaction, as once the funds are released, cancellation becomes no longer possible.

If the Requester and the Approver/Releaser are identical, the user will not have the ability to cancel a submitted balance transfer request between Jack accounts. However, they will still maintain the authority to reject the request.


To understand the process and the necessary steps to take when cancelling a submitted Balance Transfer, follow the steps outlined below:
