Si Chen commented on OFBIZ-459:
-------------------------------

Currently, if you try to create a return for an order that was paid by check, cash, etc. and you want to refund the customer, you will get this big ugly message:

org.ofbiz.webapp.event.EventHandlerException: Service invocation error (Problems with the transaction: The current transaction is marked for rollback, not beginning a new transaction and aborting current operation; the rollbackOnly was caused by: Service Error [processRefundReturn]: Unable to refund order #WS10040; there are no available payment preferences.; See logs for more detail)

This is in fact not too difficult to fix.  Instead of returning this error, just create a new Payment of the type CUSTOMER_REFUND to the ReturnHeader.returnFromPartyId from the ReturnHeader.returnFacilityId.ownerPartyId for the amount of the refund in the state NOT_SENT.  Then apply that Payment to the Return Invoice created from the Return.  Later somebody can go in and manually set the payment method type, payment method type, etc.
