Returning a purchase does not document settlement of its finance
A refund and a loan-account adjustment involve related records that can arrive at different times.
The item's return alone does not show how the provider applied money.
Keep purchase and financing confirmations together and obtain the updated position. The schedule should not be assumed cancelled until the relevant agreement and process establish that result.
