Best practices for canceling transactions

  2. Select Cancel from the drop-down menu.

Canceling Transactions requires the unique record ID to be incorporated in the .csv file. The record ID may be retrieved from Data Query. No additional fields are required in the .csv file for canceling records. 

Zuora recommends you back up the data before changing the transaction status to Cancel.
