Hello, is there anywhere where I can find a summary of thedifferences between an AR credit memo vs. AR Return type transaction?

For example, something like this:

Credit Memo:

  • Reduces customer balance
  • Can not refund money
  • Can not impact bank rec
  • Does not impact cash account

Return

  • Reduces customer balance
  • Can refund money via cash, check, credit card
  • Shows as neg receipt in bank rec
  • reduces cash account

Anywhere I can find a summary like this?

Thanks!

    Re: AR: credit memo vs. return

    From the good old GP Help files . . .

    Credit Memos

    Use credit memos to record any decrease in a customer's balance that isn't the result of a payment. The difference between a credit and a return is that a credit memo credits a customer's account. A return credits a customer’s credit card balance or account with your company, and reverses tax and commission amounts that were previously entered.

    Returns

    Use returns to record the return of a product. You can use returns to decrease the customer's balance, if the customer hasn't received cash for the return. The difference between a credit and a return is that a credit memo credits a customer's account. A return credits a customer’s credit card balance or account with your company, and reverses tax and commission amounts that were previously entered.

    Hope this Help helps!
