Options Reference
Each option and field on the form is described below. Mandatory options and fields are highlighted in red.
Credit Note Header Details
Batch
This updates with a generated batch number after you enter the first transaction.
Branch
The branch comes from the default option selected in JC Module Control - for example from Accounts Receivable Module Control, the job, or the customer. You can change the option.
Last Credit Note Number
This displays the last saved credit note number within the batch in read-only format.
Job Detail
If the credit note form is opened from JC Job Maintenance, this defaults to the job that was selected when the form was opened. You can select a different job.
Client Detail
If the selected job has a single customer, the customer code and details defaults when you select the job. If the job has multiple customers, you must select the customer the credit note is for.
Payment Date
This is determined by the customer Terms assigned in AR Customer Maintenance. It is not applicable to credit notes as there is no payment date for credits, and the customer's account is credited immediately when the credit is saved.
Posting Date/Period End
The posting date defaults to the document date and is the date that is assigned to the credit note transaction when the general ledger is updated. The period end date defaults in read-only format to the end date of the period in which the posting date falls.
Credit Note
Enter a reference for the credit note, or leave the field empty if AR Auto-Numbering is in use and you want to generate a number when the credit note is saved.
Order No
Enter an order number reference.
Salesperson
The default value is the salesperson assigned to the selected customer. You can select a different salesperson.

Date (document)
The default value is the current date and represents the date associated with the credit note. The posting date defaults to this date.
Narration
Enter a narration, of up to 2,000 characters, to add information about the credit. This prints on the header of the credit note.
Credit Note Amounts
These values update in read-only format as lines are added to the credit note.
Credit Note Line Details

When you save a credit transaction, Greentree updates the general ledger and customer balances. The transaction effect is the opposite to the effect for an AR Invoice.
