How to create a customer debit memo in BC

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 42

Hello all,

I have been using SL for the last 7 years and in SL if there was an old unused or partially used credit memo that was never used we could either refund it to the customer OR create a debit memo. The debit memo would offset the credit memo and the account would be cleaned up. Is there a way to create a debit memo for a customer credit memo in BC? I only want to debit out the unused portion of the existing credit memo (but not issue a refund to the customer). If there is no debit memo option (and I'm not seeing one) can someone please let me know best practice for this?

Thanks!

    Hello,

    No, in BC we don't have a "debit memo".

    Instead you can create a transaction with the Document Type "blank" through sales journal or a general journal.

    Another option would be to use the Document Type "Invoice".

    If you use the "Correction" check mark and enter the debit amount with a negative decimal, then you also correct debit and credit amounts / balances.

    Hope this helps

    Thanks Dirk! That correction method with the negative debit looks like the way to go for me!
