# Appeasements

Orderwave makes it easy to pre-configure common appeasements for your users to use for customers. Appeasements can be applied after orders are charged (they will take the form of a new refund), or before orders are settled (they will adjust the order and authorization to a lower amount).

Navigate to Admin > Appeasement Options to view or create new pre-configured appeasement options for your users.

Appeasement Option Description Provide a descriptive phrase that tells your user what this appeasement will do to the order, such as "Refund 10%".

Appeasement Option Action(s) The actions that will take place in the appeasement.
Appeasement Option Action Description Provide a brief description of the appeasement action, such as "Shipping Refund".
Appeasement Type Choose whether the appeasement will be a flat amount, such as $10.00, or a percentage.
Appeasement Amount If this is a flat appeasement, enter a currency amount as a decimal. If this is a percentage-based appeasement, enter a percentage as a decimal, where 1.0 is 100%, and 0.2 is 20%.
Applies To Choose whether the appeasement action will apply to the items on the order, or the shipping on the order.
Allowed Prior To Capture Choose whether this appeasement option is available to users if the order is currently authorized, but not yet captured.

You can create additional appeasement option actions, for example, if you want to give a 10% refund on items, and a 100% refund on shipping.
