Are credit notes necessary within Dexxter when invoicing is done in an external tool?

2023-09-12

Question

Hello,

I create my invoices and credit notes in a different programme. I do not use Dexxter to send invoices and credit notes to customers.

My first invoice (in the other tool) was sent with the customer’s incorrect vAT number, so I credited it (in the other tool) and sent the same invoice with the correct vAT number.

For the accounts within Dexxter, is it sufficient to register only the correct invoice, or is it necessary for me to register invoice 1 (incorrect vAT), credit note 1 and invoice 2 (correct vAT)?

Thanks in advance.

If you are subject to VAT, I would stop both (i.e. the incorrect invoice and the credit note for it). This is because the credit note will then have an impact on some vAT grids.

And also for the numbering of your sales invoices? If you only stop the last sales invoice, you will have a gap in the numbering. You can give an explanation during an audit, because those invoices are simply in the other package. But then the follow-up question during the audit will be: why are they not in your accounts?

It seems simpler to me to just put them in Dexxter :)
