Voiding a transaction is primarily useful for PINless bill pay transactions. Besides this primary case, voiding is usable on other debit transactions that have not settled but you want to 
cancel.

For the entire list of API endpoints, refer to :magic-link[**API Endpoints**]{id="-endpoints"}.

## Requirements

`dbvoid` is only usable on terminals with the following settings:

- Region set to USA
- Debit transactions enabled

If you would like to enable these settings on your terminal, please contact Elavon Software Technical Support.
