Paperwork generation
See the article on paperwork and modifications for info on when Invoices and credit notes are generated
Credit notes are automatically generated when transactions are modified and:
- The total value of a transaction is reduced
- The value is unchanged but products are switched or pricing allocations change
- The total is increased or items are added (depending on credit note behaviour setting)
- Cancellation (full or partial)
- Refunds - for Credit Card transactions or Invoiced transactions which are Paid, PartiallyPaid or PartiallyRefunded
Credit notes are not automatically sent to the customer but can be sent via:
- "Send credit note" checkbox in the modify transactions screen when saving
- "Send Latest Credit Note" ACTION
- "Cancel + Notify" ACTION
Credit notes and Invoices are always available via the transaction history
