Issuing an Itemized Credit Note to a Customer

You can issue credit notes in two flexible ways, either by entering a simple amount (quick credit note) or selecting specific products (itemized). Approvals can be automatic or manual, based on your settings and user permissions.

Itemized Credit Note – used for creating a credit note with detailed product breakdowns.

1.1 In the customer dashboard, at the lower left selected Itemized CRN,  a new credit note window will appear. Products are pre-filled from customer’s recent history just enter the quantity for each item you want to credit and the system auto-calculates the amounts.

1.2 Once done a print-ready PDF file can be generated, this auto saves the credit note as well.

Approval:

    •    If auto-approval is enabled, the credit note is posted instantly

    •    If not, it goes into the approval queue
