InvoiceAdjustment

Zuora

InvoiceAdjustment

Invoice Adjustment is deprecated on Production in WSDL version 64.0. Zuora recommends that you use the Invoice Item Adjustment to adjust invoices. If you have the Invoice Settlement feature enabled, this object is deprecated and only available for backward compatibility. 

An invoice adjustment modifies an existing invoice. You use an invoice adjustment to change the entire invoice. For example, you can apply a late fee to the invoice balance.

An invoice adjustment differs from an invoice item adjustment. An invoice item adjustment affects an individual charge or line item on an invoice. An invoice adjustment affects the invoice at the header-level.

Both adjustments can affect the invoice balance.

These are the characteristics of an invoice item adjustment:

  • Always for a charge in an invoice
  • Tied to all accounting and revenue recognition information associated with the charge
  • Only one invoice item adjustment to one charge
  • Named with prefix, IILA-

These are the characteristics of an invoice adjustment:

  • Always for an invoice
  • Only on accounting code for an invoice
  • Multiple adjustments to one invoice
  • Named with prefix, IA-

Use the InvoiceAdjustment object to apply an adjustment to an Invoice object.

Additional Field Detail

Id

The ID of this object. Every object has a unique identifier that Zuora automatically assigns upon creation. You use this ID later when you work with the object. For example, if you send an amend() call to modify an existing subscription, then you need to include the specific Subscriptionobject's ID with the call.

The ID for the InvoiceAdjustment object is InvoiceAdjustmentId.

Type

Indicates whether the adjustment credits or debits the invoice amount. Set the value to Credit to create a credit memo, which gives a credit on the invoice balance or lowers its total. Set the value to Charge to create a debit memo, which increases the balance.
