When I issue a partial refund users are unenrolled from the course.  If this behavior normal?  How can I prevent this?

This is normal behavior. When users or site owners cancel a payment, the enrollment also stops.

Imagine it was not like this - then everybody could pay for a course, wait some minutes to be enrolled in a course, and then cancel the payment without being unenrolled!

Perhaps you can prevent this by not using refunds but payments to pay back your users.

Surely there is a more useful way to do this instead of simply unenrolling automatically.  In your example a simple notification would be more helpful.  The problem with making a payment outside of a refund is that PayPal takes yet another cut. sad
