Note: On 1 September 2024, JTL introduced new editions that bundle most of the previous individual services into different packages. In order for you to continue working as smoothly as possible, existing customers were automatically switched to the package configuration that best matched their existing contract. The individual packages differ in terms of limitations and/or range of functions. Therefore, some of the features described in the JTL-Guide may not be available to you as part of your booked JTL edition. You can change your package configuration in your JTL customer account. Find out more about the new editions and packages here. Check our FAQ for frequently asked questions about the product editions.
Creating refunds
Your task/initial situation
You would like to credit an amount to a customer. You therefore create a refund for the desired amount.
Detail: From a technical point of view, invoice corrections and refunds are identical in JTL-Wawi. They therefore also access the same print template by default. The only difference is that invoice corrections always relate to an invoice and can only include the items that were also in the invoice. Refunds can contain any items and have no invoice reference. If you want to create a refund for an invoice, please read Creating invoice corrections.
Creating refunds
- Click on the Customers icon to go to the customer management in JTL-Wawi and select the customer for whom you would like to create a refund.
- In the customer master data, go to the Invoice corrections tab.
- Click Create credit memo. The Create refund dialogue box opens.
- Click Add custom line item to add a custom line item or select an item from your product range whose value you want to credit to your customer via the search box Searching for items.
- Double-click in the pink cells to specify, for example, the Line item name, Net SP and Gross SP.
- Close the Create refund dialogue box with Save and formalise, or with Save as ‘draft’.
Optional: For example, if you have transferred a credited amount to your customer, you can record this in the Status field in the Invoice correction area.
You have now credited a specific amount to your customer.
Alternatively, you can also create a refund via the Sales management in JTL-Wawi. To do this, open the corresponding sales order in the sales management and add an item or a custom line item to the line item list.
