Hi @Kaz24 

Truth is that Intuit / QB do not understand CIS.  Certainly not when it comes to credit notes.

By not building in the CIS function into Credit Notes, QBO treats them (for CIS purposes at least) as a part payment rather than a reduction in the value of the work done.  Since CIS is cash-based (the deduction date is the date of payment) QBO is effectively saying that the work was done, the credit note was the payment & the deduction is owed to HMRC.

Ridiculous!

 

It's been raised as an issue on here many times over the last few years (both sales & purchase credits have the same problem).

 

The easiest option is persuade the customer to accept a corrected invoice.  If you noticed it so quickly, they surely won't have logged it onto their system.

Alternatively, void & raise a new 'correct' invoice.

If the customer insists on a credit note, the only workaround I can find is discussed here ... https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-uk/transactions/how-do-i-create-a-cis-credit-note-to-...

 

Hope this helps.
