Adjusting a Closed Invoice in Dynamics AX 2009

Posted Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

While it is technically impossible to edit a closed invoice in DAX2009, there are a few options for crediting your customers.  One popular method (and one I don’t recommend) is to issue a free text invoice.  This will credit your customer, but it will not tie back to the original invoice, and it will create havoc if you are using commissions in any way.  Remember, FTI’s were created for service items, not item items.

Instead, try one of the following:

Process a credit note for the already invoiced line in question.  (Sales Order > Functions > Create Credit Note)  Once the credit is created, you can run an invoice (Post Qty > All if you do not wish to actually return) and then rerun the invoice (again, post Qty > All if you do not wish to actually return).

Create a new service type item for each Item Group.  This will not impact inventory, and then when you need to adjust, add a new SO line for the service item on it, use the correct sale price, and post the invoice.  Then enter a FTI credit against the originally posted amount.  A bit of a work around, but may meet your requirements.
