Creating a Non Stock Financial Credit from a Sales order

Creating a Non Stock Financial Credit from a Sales order

You can create a non-stock financial credit to refund the customer money instead of crediting a product.
A Customer may request a credit for a broken item or parts missing etc. Instead of crediting the product itself and asking the customer to return the product, you can just issue a financial credit and let the customer keep the product. No stock affect at all. Just a refund of some sort. Whether it be a partial or full credit for the broken item.

 

Step 1.

Create a General ledger account to stand for eg Sales - Financial Credit
