Summary:<\/strong> Debit notes are the money owed to the seller by the buyer. Whereas credit notes are the money owed to the buyer by a business. Let\u2019s find out what steps do you need to follow to enter these notes in TallyPrime.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Debit and credit notes are two different accounting instruments used by buyers and sellers for different purposes. Most users find entering these numbers in the TallyPrime accounting journal challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a certain criterion, that needed to be followed for credit note and debit note entry in Tally. In this guide, you will learn about debit and credit notes, the steps to enter them in TallyPrime, and the key differences between them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Credit notes are issued by the seller to the buyer when there is a decrease in the amount payable to the seller. By providing a credit note to the buyer, the seller acknowledges the amount that needs to be paid back to the buyer or adjustments that will be made in the next purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They are issued when the damaged goods are sold, an extra amount is charged for goods delivered, the discount is not mentioned in the invoice, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A debit note is a document issued by the vendor to the buyer to notify them about the current debt obligations. It can also be created by the buyer when they return goods received on credit due to any defect or issues. For the returned items, this debit note records all the details including the return reason, date of purchase, number of items, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These notes are different from invoices as they do not request immediate payment and rather work as a reminder for the current debt payments. Therefore, based on debit notes, actual goods are exchanged but payment is done later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The credit note is issued for sales returns or when there is escalation or de-escalation in price. Credit note entry in Tally can be done in two scenarios when sales returns take place before and after making payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Checkout the following steps to make the credit note entry in Tally when sales returns take place before making payment-<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 1:<\/strong> Open the credit note voucher section and record the buyer\u2019s details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 2:<\/strong> To record buyer details, enter Alt+G, go to create voucher, enter F10 (Other Vouchers), and select Credit Note. Else, go to Gateway of Tally, choose Vouchers, press F10 (Other Vouchers) > select Credit Note, press Enter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 3: <\/strong>Press the keys, Ctrl+H to select the invoice mode as per your business requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 4: <\/strong>Under the party details section, enter party name and details like receipt number, date of sales return, etc. If you do not get the Party Details section for original invoice no. and date, tap F12 (Configure), and set the option Provide Receipt, Export and Import details to Yes option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 5: <\/strong>Now, choose the sales ledger to add details about stock items. Simply, select the stock items and add their quantities. The price will remain unchanged if the same item has been sold earlier. However, Tally enables you to enter the amount manually as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 6: <\/strong>Next, choose bill-wise details. Tap F12 (Configure) > set Use Default Bill-Wise details for Bill Allocation to \u2018No\u2019 option. After that, you can choose the bill references in the Bill-wise Details.<\/p>\n\n\n Step 7:<\/strong> Select the Agst Ref in the reference option because you still have not received the payment for the goods sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 8: <\/strong>Add narration or any other details if required and save them with CTRL+A.
