Summary

Documents two recent frontend changes from the past week:

Manual contribution refunds (opencollective-frontend#12349)

  • Updated Processing Refunds with separate flows for Stripe/PayPal vs manual contributions and added funds
  • Documents the Mark contribution as refunded dialog and off-platform confirmation checkbox
  • Clarifies that manual refunds only reverse the ledger — no money is moved by the platform
  • Notes that only Fiscal Host admins can process manual refunds
  • Added cross-reference from Adding Funds Manually

Chinese Alipay date of birth (opencollective-frontend#12351)

  • Added Wise bank transfer payout method guidance to Submitting Expenses
  • Added troubleshooting note to Handling Payment Errors Through Wise

Codepaths covered

  • HostRefundChargeModal manual settlement flow (ADDED_FUNDS and contributions with no payment method)
  • Wise Alipay payout method creation form (dateOfBirth field)

Knowledge gaps addressed

  • The existing Processing Refunds page ended with an incomplete sentence about manual refunds without explaining the actual workflow
  • No documentation existed for the Alipay date-of-birth requirement introduced in August 2026

Not documented (no user-facing doc changes needed)

Open in Web View Automation 

Document the updated refund flow for manual contributions and added funds
(opencollective-frontend#12349), where Fiscal Host admins mark contributions
as refunded with an off-platform confirmation.

Also document the date-of-birth field required for Chinese Alipay payout
methods via Wise (opencollective-frontend#12351).
