When to issue a credit note

Issue a credit note when goods are returned, a price was wrong or a service was not delivered. It reduces what the customer owes without altering the original invoice.

What to reference

Use the reference field for the original invoice number and describe each credited item. Many tax authorities expect the link to the original invoice to be explicit.
