Document type · Credit note

Document a reduction or correction against earlier billing.

Use Credit Note when you need to record an adjustment connected to an earlier invoice or transaction. The editor hides payment-due terms and labels the key reference Original invoice / reference.

What the credit-note editor supports

Adjustment lines

Describe the goods, services, quantity, price, tax, discount, or fee associated with the reduction or correction.

Original reference

Connect the document to the earlier invoice or transaction and explain the reason in the notes.

Consistent records

Use the same seller, client, branding, currency, local workspace, and PDF, PNG, or SVG export tools.

Before issuing a credit note

  • Identify the original invoice or transaction accurately and state the reason for the adjustment.
  • Verify whether amounts should be entered as positive adjustment values or require other treatment in your records and jurisdiction.
  • InvoiceCraftly does not update an original invoice, accounting balance, tax return, or customer ledger automatically.
  • Numbering, tax correction, timing, and required wording vary by jurisdiction and transaction.

Other document types

Choose the purpose first; you can change the type inside the editor without changing the selected visual layout.
