Apply Credit Adjustment

If you did not already apply a credit adjustment to an open invoice when creating a credit adjustment, you can manually apply it after it has been posted. This is known as an adjustment application.

Only adjustments with the Manually Apply to Invoice field enabled can be manually allocated to invoices. You can select or deselect this checkbox when creating or editing an adjustment. Refer to Create Credit Adjustment for more information.

The amount of the credit adjustment that is still available to apply is displayed in the Unapplied Amount field on the Credit Adjustment Detail window.
