A credit note (also known as a credit memo) is issued to indicate a return of funds in the event of an invoice error, incorrect or damaged products, purchase cancellation, or circumstances that require a credit to be issued. A credit note can be created to apply a credit for a previous PO or Non-PO invoice.

Before creating a credit note, please take note of the following:

• Your customer may not accept credit notes credit through the platform. If you are unsure if you can submit credit notes through Taulia, please contact your customer.
• Once you submit your credit note and it is in process, the PO value will automatically update. If the credit note is rejected, it will remove the value back out of the PO.
• You will not be able to create a credit note against a PO that is closed. If you are not able to find a PO in the portal, make sure you are entering the correct PO number. If you are not able to find it, the PO may be closed. Please contact your buyer.
• Depending on your customer, you may only be able to create PO or Non-PO credit notes. Some customers offer both.

1 - Log onto the Home page of the portal.
