Credit Notes

Credit notes are just like invoices which allows you to cancel the issued invoices, either partially or completely. It is an official legal document which is also known as a credit memo or credit memorandum. Credit notes are mainly used in situations such as when a customer returns the goods or services provided due to any reasons, when the customer by mistake makes an overpayment or when the initial price on the invoice was a mistake.

In Odoo 15 Accounting you can view and create credit notes by selecting the Credit Notes option from the Customers tab. The list of existing credit notes are displayed along with details such as Number, Customer, Invoice Date, Due Date, Next Activity, Tax Excluded amount, Total amount, Total in Currency, Payment Status and overall Status of the credit note. The total amount and total amount by excluding the tax is displayed at the bottom.
