Generate Correction Invoice

Explanation

This activity is used to correct an instant invoice or a supplier outgoing invoice which contains incorrect information by creating a correction invoice. You can only generate one correction invoice per invoice. However, if further corrections need to be made, the second correction invoice can be created as a correction of the first correction invoice instead of as a correction of the original invoice.

It is not possible to generate a correction invoice for an advance invoice.

Prerequisites

In order to perform this activity, the invoice which is to be corrected must be posted ( the invoice status should be PostedAuth, PaidPosted or PartlyPaidPosted).

System Effects

As a result of this activity, a new invoice with reference to the original invoice is created. The new invoice would have the Correction Invoice option enabled to indicate that it is a correction invoice. The Correction Exists option of the original invoice will be enabled to indicate that a correction invoice is connected to it.
