Crediting an Invoice

Crediting an Invoice is the best practice when:

  • Cancelling an Invoice
  • Returning parts or refunding items
  • Correcting mistakes
    • It is best practice to credit the entire invoice, then re-bill the invoice with the corrections made.

 

Crediting an Invoice, or items on an Invoice, creates a "paper trail" within Manage Online.

  • This allows you to better track the movement of credits, inventory, and the status of the Invoice.

 

For information on issuing refunds (instead of credits), see Issuing Refunds.

    • Note: Click Select All to select all items on the Invoice.

  1. Enter Notes (optional) >> Select a Credit Date and payment Method >> click Credit.

    • Note: When crediting, the Invoice converts back into a Repair Order (if it was previously a Repair Order, rather than an Estimate).
