An adjustment is a small discount or an additional charge on an invoice that is not routed to any specific account by default.
The purpose of an adjustment is to balance the fractions on the invoice. For example, if the invoice total is (10.15), you can add an adjustment of (-0.15) to make the net amount due (10) only, which makes the sales process easier.
- Note that a positive adjustment means an increase in the amount paid by that positive amount, and a negative adjustment means a discount in favor of the client.
- The system allows you to set the adjustment account routing. You can refer to the “Sales Account Routing” guide to set the adjustment account on the invoice.
