Creating an AR Invoice Adjustment

General Tips for Creating an Adjustment:

  • Adjustments should be completed if you want to reduce the amount due on an invoice.
  • Adjustments for more than ($1,000) must be approved by OBO
  • If you want to increase the amount due on an invoice, create a new invoice for the additional amount OR adjust or delete the initial invoice and create a new invoice for the full amount.
  • Departments can do a partial adjustment for any line on the invoice up to the amount due for that line.
  • Adjustments applied at the invoice level must be for the full amount due.
