What is a Credit Note?

When a company needs to pay for goods or services and does not have the money immediately available, it may issue a credit note. A credit note is like a promissory note, but instead of being payable on demand by the creditor, the debtor must settle it with the creditor at some point in the future. The advantage of issuing a credit note is that it allows the debtor to get cash sooner rather than later.

The process of issuing a credit note begins with creating an invoice. The invoice should include all pertinent information such as the name of the company issuing the credit note, the quantity and type of goods or services purchased, and the price paid. Next, the company must contact its suppliers to let them know that it needs to purchase goods or services and will be paying in advance. Suppliers will usually agree to accept a credit note as payment if it is issued in good faith and meets all contractual obligations.

Once all suppliers are notified, the company must prepare a credit note agreement. This agreement should outline all repayment terms, including when and how payments will be made. Once approved by both parties, the credit note can be issued.
