One night at AMS lots of flights were cancelled and the airline ran out of hotel rooms. I found one myself, paid the bill and later the airline reimbursed me directly to my bank account.
I can’t tag the reimbursement as a refund because there is no matching transaction with the airline.
I could raise an invoice on the airline and tag the reimbursement as payment.
I have the airline set up as a supplier, could I use the refund from credit on account method?
Is there a better solution?
