Creating Correction Invoices for Periodic Posting
Depending on the correction you make, you can create a correction invoice in the following cases:
When you make tax-relevant corrections to an invoice that you have already posted and issued, you create a correction invoice. A tax-relevant correction always affects the value-added tax (VAT) amount and all parameters that influence the tax calculation. The correction invoice contains the corrected invoice item, the corrected amount with a negative sign, the new invoice item, and the difference amount.
When you reverse the accounting documents of an invoice that you have already posted and issued or you make corrections to an invoice that do not affect the VAT amount (for example, tenant's address is incorrect), you create a correction invoice for the reversal.
Choose the corresponding contract and correct the incorrect data.
