It does. When it says that they need to be with specific sequences, it means that they must be different from standard invoices. "Facturas rectificativas" is the equivalent to credit notes. > But of course, customization of the invoice numbering will still be > possible.

Those should always be in a "Factura rectificativa" and should state the invoice of the goods that were delivered in the first place. It is my understanding that it would be possible to use a negative amount on a line if that does not mean the returning of a good (for example, when you have a deposit and you substract that amount on the invoice which evantually is positive). > -- > Cédric Krier - B2CK SPRL > Email/Jabber: [email protected] > Tel: +32 472 54 46 59 > Website: http://www.b2ck.com/ -- Albert Cervera i Areny Tel. 93 553 18 03 @albertnan www.NaN-tic.com
