How do I raise an invoice credit?

Credit notes are a simple way to this article, you will be guided through the process of raising a credit note against an invoice.

1. Credit raised against an outstanding invoice will be considered as a partial/full payment towards that invoice
2. Credit raised against a reconciled (fully paid) invoice will be considered as an account credit

Account credit can be applied as follows:

1. The credit will be automatically applied to the next invoice that is issued with auto-collect billing enabled
2. Or if your customer has outstanding invoices which have not auto-collected, the credit can be manually applied by your customer. Their account credit can be found and applied when paying their invoice via their JoinIn account: https://app.joinin.online as demonstrated below:
