It changes the pay status to paid on invoice and the class to the previous active class (active qualified or active non-qualified). Credit Reinstate basically combines two transactions (Credit Reinstate and Credit Payment) into one.), Reinstate (RE) changes a suspended class to active (qualified or non-qualified).
