redeposited

Returned to account

Redeposited describes something that has been deposited again or in a new location.

The term appears most often in geology, where sediments eroded from one place are redeposited elsewhere: The river redeposited sand along the floodplain.

In banking, a check that bounced may be redeposited when funds become available.
