Edit credit and debit memos

Zuora

Edit credit and debit memos

You can edit a credit or debit memo after creation from the Zuora UI and REST API. You can edit credit or debit memos only if you have the Billing user permission. See Billing Roles for more information.

Overview

Currently, Zuora supports updating tax-exclusive memo items, but does not support updating tax-inclusive memo items. 

If the amount of a memo item is updated, the tax will be recalculated in the following conditions:

  • The memo is created from a product rate plan charge and you use Avalara to calculate the tax.
  • The memo is created from an invoice and you use Avalara or Zuora Tax to calculate the tax.

Procedure

To edit credit memos and debit memos from the Zuora REST API, see PUT Update Credit Memo and PUT Debit Memo.

To edit credit memos and debit memos from the Zuora UI, complete the following steps:

  1. Navigate to Billing > Credit and Debit Memos in the navigation section.
