Raising a supplementary invoice or credit note

  • Updated

This guide will explain how to create a supplementary invoice or credit note in SmartPay

Supplementary Invoices & Credit Notes

  • Use a Supplementary Invoice to add charges after an invoice is created.

  • Use a Credit Note to correct errors or remove items from an approved invoice. Note: Credit Notes cannot exceed the original invoice amount.

Both options are available anytime after an invoice is raised, regardless of status—unless the invoice has been archived, which disables both buttons.

To proceed with changes on an archived invoice, contact the load poster.

You’ll find both options in the More menu on desktop.
