What this helps you do
This guide shows the supported Pixie CRM route for apply credit to an invoice, the values worth reviewing and the checks to make after the action.
Follow these steps
- Open Credit Note → Apply to Invoice in Pixie CRM.
- Start the task from that screen and select the correct customer, record, staff member or configuration context when Pixie CRM asks for one.
- Review the controls that matter for this task: Credit note, Target invoice, Available credit, Applied amount.
- Then check Remaining credit. Use verified information and do not fill optional values with placeholders.
