Credit notes are always linked directly to invoices, making it easy to manage credits and balances. Here’s how to create and handle credit notes:
Open the Invoice
Find the invoice you’d like to apply a credit note to. Open it and select Create a Credit Note from the "Actions" menu.
Select Quantities
Choose the quantities to include in the credit note. You can create multiple credit notes for a single invoice if needed.
Create and Review
Click Create to generate your credit note. It’ll be saved as a draft so you can double-check everything. When you’re ready, go to the "Actions" menu to confirm it or delete it if needed.
Linked to Quantities, Not Amounts
Credit notes are tied to product quantities on an invoice, so you can’t manually set the amount.
Marking Invoices as Paid
If a credit note covers all items on an invoice, the invoice will automatically be marked as fully paid. Credit notes act as payments toward invoices.
Limits on Credit Note Amounts
You can’t apply a credit note if it exceeds the remaining balance on an invoice.
Handling Existing Payments
If there’s already a payment on the invoice, you’ll need to delete it first. This will unlock the “Create Credit Note” option.
Finding Your Credit Notes
All your credit notes are organized under the Credit Notes tab. Head to the general menu, and select Credit Notes in the Invoices & Payments section.
