Function: createCreditNote()

createCreditNote(input): CreditNote

Defined in: packages/core/src/create/index.ts:131

Creates a canonical credit note from what the caller knows about it.

The credit note counterpart of createInvoice: same defaults, same calculations, same way of stating a VAT exemption reason, on credited quantities. Amounts stay positive - a credit note credits what it states.

Parameters

input

CreditNoteInput

The credit note, without the amounts that follow from its lines.

Returns

CreditNote

The canonical credit note.

Throws

When a number the caller wrote is not finite.

Throws

When a line states a price base quantity (BT-149) of zero.

Throws

When an allowance or charge of the document or of a line states no amount and not both a multiplierFactorNumeric and a baseAmount to compute it from, or when a tax total other than the first states no taxAmount, or one of its tax subtotals no taxableAmount or taxAmount: the builder computes only the first tax total (the VAT total in the document currency, BT-110).
