Stripe allows to release partially refund while VirtueMart doesn't have such order status by default. We need to create new status.
Go to VirtueMart > any page and click on arrow icon to open sidebar for additional links (sidebar is closed by default).
Open extra menu with menu items by clicking on Arrow icon (sidebar is closed by default) and go to Configuration > Order Statuses.
Type Partially Refunded name and do not forget to add Order Status Code. It might be any non-taken letter (e.g. E).
If you use Stripe Checkout, then you also need to add Payment Unpaid status too.
Go to Payment Methods and edit your Stripe method and open Payment Method Information tab:
Type name of Stripe payment method which will be displayed at the front-end (e.g. "Stripe" or "Pay via Debit/Credit cards").
Sandbox Mode - If Sandbox Mode is enabled, no real money are transferred. Sandbox is used to test the payments.
Debug - if enabled, all transactions will be logged.
Payment Intent Description - allows to set custom payment intent description. Use {ORDER_NR} constant to pass the order number.
Payment Completed - Select the order status that will be applied based on successfull payment transaction result. By default it is Completed
Payment Failed - Select the order status that will be applied based on failed payment or error during transaction processing. By default it is Cancelled.
Payment Cancelled - Select the order status that will be applied based on cancelled payment or error during transaction processing. By default it is Cancelled.
Payment Unpaid - Select the order status that will be applied based on unpaid payment or error during transaction processing. By default it is Confirmed. This parameter appears in Stripe Checkout plugin only.
Payment Refunded - Select the order status that will be applied based on refunded payment or error during transaction processing. By default it is Refunded.
Payment Partially Refunded - Select the order status that will be applied based on partially refunded payment or error during transaction processing. By default it is Refunded. Please select Partially Refunded.
Elements Layout - Tabs / Accordion. This parameter is available in Stripe plugin only (not in Stripe Checkout).
Elements Theme - Stripe / Flat / Night. This parameter is available in Stripe plugin only (not in Stripe Checkout).
Publishable Key - Set your Publishable Key. You can find it in Stripe Dashboard > Developers > API keys.

Webhook URL - a URL to paste in Stripe dashboard.
Example of Stripe plugin:
https://yoursite.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=pluginresponse&task=pluginnotification&tmpl=component&pm=7
Where is mysite.com - set up your domain and correct pm= parameter taken from your site and make sure you have a valid SSL certificate. You need to copy this URL and paste it in Stripe dashboard > Webhooks.
