Credit Notes
Issue credit notes linked to original invoices. Mandatory reason + invoice reference validation.
Credit notes (CRN) for refunds, returns, and corrections. Codeblix enforces the MRA rules: mandatory reason, original invoice reference, MRA-fiscalised with own IRN.
How it works
Select the original invoice, choose the reason (returns, overcharge, settlement discount, damaged goods, etc.), adjust the line items, and submit. Codeblix fiscalises the credit note with the MRA and stores the IRN.
MRA enforcement
The MRA requires a reason and an original invoice reference on every credit note. Codeblix blocks credit notes that do not have both. This prevents accidental non-compliance.
Partial credit notes
You can credit part of the original invoice amount. Adjust line items independently — e.g. credit 2 of 5 items, or credit 50% of one item.
Hash chain
Credit notes are part of the MRA hash chain. They get their own sequential counter, hash, and IRN. The chain is intact across STD, CRN, and DRN documents.
Refunds vs credit notes
A credit note is the document that reduces the customer's balance. The actual cash refund is a separate transaction. Codeblix handles both: credit note for accounting, refund for cash flow.
