On-Account Credit Memos

When you enter an on-account credit without a specific invoice reference, Receivables creates records in the following tables:

Consider a sample on-account credit applied to customer ABC Inc:

Transaction Number: OC-101

Bill-To: ABC Inc

Transaction Date: 05-Jun-94

Credit Amount: -1000

On-Account Credit transaction number OC-101 would be represented in Receivables tables as follows:

RA_CUSTOMER_TRX
customer_
trx_id
trx_number bill_to_
customer_id
trx_date previous_
customer_
trx_id
660108 OC-101 ABC Inc 05-Jun-94 NULL

The previous_customer_trx_id column is NULL because the credit does not apply to a specific invoice.

RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_LINES
customer_
trx_line_id
customer_
trx_id
link_to_
cust_trx_
line_id
line_type extended_
amount
previous_
customer_
trx_id
previous_
customer_
trx_line_id
170 660108   LINE -1000    

((vertical COM)) ?

If there had been a sales credit for this invoice, records relating to the revenue credit would be inserted in RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_SALESREPS, linked via the column customer_trx_line_id.

For on account credits Receivables inserts one record into RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_LINES. The total value of the credit is stored in the extended_amount column. The previous_customer_trx_line_id and previous_customer_trx_id columns are null because the credit does not apply to a specific invoice.

RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST
cust_trx_line_
gl_dist_id
code_combination_id customer_
trx_line_id
account_class amount
 
210220 01-1200-1000-3000   REC -1000
210221 01-8100-1000-3000 170 REV -1000

Because this is an on-account credit, the revenue account will be debited and the receivable will be credited.
