Credit notes

[David T.]

As a quasi-non-technical, certainly non-accountant, end-user lurker on the Devel list, I think it would be fine (given Graham's comment) to leave the menu item as New Invoice, with a tool tip and Help documentation that clearly explains that an invoice can be either a debit or a credit. I agree that cluttering menus up with more stuff is a bad answer.

A credit note is a type of invoice, the other type of invoice being a debit note.

I would recommend not making up out own terms for this this, but rather leaving it as "invoice - debit note" and "invoice - credit note".

Same for bills. Sometimes vendors will give us a credit note, and we have no way to capture it apart from editing the XML file directly.

Graham
