Supplier Adjustment Notes

A Supplier Adjustment Note (aka Credit Note) is a supplier generated credit on your account. Supplier adjustment notes can be applied to outstanding Bills with that supplier, or a request can be made for a cash refund of that credit (if permitted by the suppliers terms and conditions). A supplier is anyone you pay for goods and services except for employees. Some examples of suppliers are electricity companies, the land lord, telephone company, tax agencies and other businesses you purchase goods or services from.

To use Supplier Adjustment Notes you must have the Invoices module activated within your book. For help on modifying the book and activating the Invoices module, go to Reckon Customer Portal help. 

From the side navigation menu, expand Day to Day menu and in the Money Out section select Supplier adjustment notes. Or from the Quick Add menu, select Supplier adjustment notes.

  

Supplier adjustment notes settings can be found on Day to Day (money out). You can change the prefix and customise supplier adjustment notes templates by adding your company logo or choose what to show on the adjustment notes before sending it to your supplier.

The Supplier adjustment notes overview can be filtered for All, Draft, Approved or Closed to be displayed by clicking on the relevant tab. The Supplier adjustment notes overview can be customised by clicking on the spanner icon to select what columns to be displayed (or not) on the screen.
