Post A Credit Memo with no corresponding Sales Invoice

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

HI,

WE switched to BC in June 2021.  I need to post a credit memo for items returned on a sales invoice in our old accounting software.

The system will not allow me to post the credit memo because there is no sales invoice in BC to apply it to.

I have already sent payment to our customer.

Any suggestions on how to post the credit memo?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    I was facing same issue in one of my client. So I was developed one Field in Sales Header and shown in Sales Credit Memo. Field nature is Boolean. If it is true, then bypass the system validation.

    Just go to sales credit memo and register a credit memo but without filling in the assign to fields.

    Then you can post the credit memo and manually apply it to the payment afterwards.
