Due Date calculation on credit memos based on Payment Terms

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 137
Hello everyone,

I would like to ask if there is any standard way in Dynamics 365 Business Central to ensure that the Due Date is calculated according to the Payment Terms on sales and purchase credit memos.

As a general rule, it usually does not make much sense to calculate a due date for credit memos, since these documents are created to settle or adjust an existing invoice, and therefore the due date is normally not relevant. That said, I understand that in some specific scenarios the due date might still be useful, depending on how each company manages its processes and uses credit memos in different situations.

Is there any standard approach in Business Central to handle this, or is customization required to calculate and manage the due date on sales and purchase credit memos based on Payment Terms?
 
Thanks in advance.

    Hi Gerardo,

    Thank you for your reply and for sharing those links. I’ve reviewed them, but they all focus on orders and invoices, explaining how Business Central calculates the Due Date based on Payment Terms in those document types.

    My case is slightly different, as my question is specifically about credit memos (both sales and purchase). As mentioned in my original post, I understand that in standard processes credit memos usually do not require a meaningful due date, since they are typically applied to settle or adjust existing invoices.

    However, in some business scenarios the Due Date on credit memos can still be relevant, and that’s why I was trying to clarify whether Business Central provides any standard behavior for calculating the Due Date on credit memos based on Payment Terms, or if this scenario is simply not handled by default and therefore requires customization.

    If you are aware of any standard approach specifically for credit memos, or have experience implementing this behavior, I would really appreciate it if you could share it.

    Thanks again and best regards.
