This article describes how to handle a Credit Memo issued by a Supplier to UCSD

Critical Concepts

---

• A Credit Memo is a document issued by a Supplier when purchased products or requested services are not delivered or performed or when goods are returned by the customer
• It indicates a credit is owed to the customer for the value of the returned or undelivered goods
• Non-Agreement Suppliers are highly encouraged to provide Refund Checks, whereas Agreement Suppliers may provide either a Refund Check or a Credit Memo
  
  • If you are unsure whether you are working with an Agreement or Non-Agreement supplier, you can check to see if the supplier has an agreement flag
• Campus is encouraged to obtain Refund Checks instead of Credit Memos for returned items and/or billing discrepancies
