Why raise a credit memo using the corrective purchase credit memo?
You may need to raise a corrective purchase credit memo when:

- You’ve posted a purchase invoice, but the vendor has sent a credit for part or all of it;
- You’ve posted the invoice but need to reduce the amount.
Note: If you know the document number, go to the Posted Purchase Invoices page and search for the invoice directly.
