Credit notes- bulk allocation
Option to apply invoice or bill credits in bulk to invoices
Purpose: To save time from manually allocating invoices one by one.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on bulk allocation of credit notes, everyone. We understand that manually applying credit notes one by one can be time-consuming, and we appreciate wanting a a faster, more streamlined solution.
Currently, while we know it won't be the flow that suits all, it's possible to apply credit notes to multiple invoices for a single contact by opening the credit note and selecting the invoices to apply it to.
Atm, we're in the process of releasing a new experience for Sales Credit Notes. This work will enable us to develop changes like you're asking here longer term. However, the initial release is focused on developing existing features into the new Credit Notes experience. Once this is fully rolled out the team will have more capacity to consider enhancements like bulk allocations, however we want to be upfront that this isn't planned for the short term.
We value the depth of detail shared by our community through this idea, that'll help inform the teams discovery of this when we can bring more attention and focus to new features in Credit Notes. We'll be sure to share as soon as there's opportunity to pick up this idea with more rigor.

Apologies if this has been requested elsewhere - please merge with any similar suggestions.
I would like to see an 'allocate in full' button when allocating credit notes against invoices in the credit allocation screen. At the moment, there is only an 'Amount to credit' box which has to be manually input. From a personal POV, this can be time consuming because I sometimes have to allocate a single credit note against multiple invoices. The current situation is also 'unfriendly' because the balance left to credit is often at the foot of a very long list of invoices and so I have to keep scrolling to the bottom of the screen to see what's left to allocate.
