Reduce invoice value after billing
A Credit Note is issued when the seller needs to reduce the value of an already issued invoice. The document acts as a credit against the buyer's account.
Credit Notes are commonly used for sales returns, damaged goods, pricing errors, excess quantity billed, post-sale discounts and GST adjustments.
Record additional charges or supplier adjustments
A Debit Note is generally issued when invoice values need to be increased or additional charges need to be recorded. It may also be used during purchase return processes depending on business practices.
Debit Notes are commonly used for purchase returns, freight charges, underbilling corrections, tax adjustments and quantity corrections.
