Void/Reverse payment

Occasionally, a payment will need to be reversed or voided. This can occur for a number of reasons, such as a bounced check or a payment entry error. Note the following when using this request:

Once a payment is reversed, it can no longer be edited.

Unlike with a PUT Edit existing payment request, reversing a payment does not create a new payment record.

When a payment is reversed, its status in the database is updated to payment.status.voided.

Pay special attention to the endpoint of this request.

This request does not use OData, so it's not included in the endpoint like most other LMS requests.
