Agency Credit Order and Recreate

Purpose of this document

This process provides an easy method to reverse a Posted Agency Invoice and replace it with an open Agency Order. This process is normally needed to reverse an Agency Order that was posted incorrectly – for example missing Delivery Fees or a Grant application. This new function will create and post an Agency Return Order/Credit Memo (which is applied to the Posted Invoice) and then create a replacement Agency Order.

Ceres Object release 6.00.00 is required for the functionality described in this document.
