Customer return after invoicing

Fix a mistake

Situation

Goods were delivered and invoiced, then returned.

Recommendation

Create a return from the Invoice (or delivered Sales Order), then a Credit Note from the return.

Why

A return is capped at delivered/invoiced quantity not yet returned. The Credit Note from a return has a single creation path and copies the net unit price of the invoice line.

Steps

  1. Open /sales/returns/new and choose Invoice or Sales Order as source.
  2. Pick lines and quantities.
  3. Receive the goods.
  4. Create the Credit Note from the return.

Avoid

  • Void the Invoice to handle a partial return.
