    Hi Wojciech, if an invoice or bill has already been paid there is no amount left outstanding for the invoice. It sounds like you'd like the ability to easily copy the detail of an invoice to a credit note? I've slightly updated the title of your idea here, for this. 

    If this doesn't quite reflect it'd be great to get more detail of scenarios you'd in which your business receives a credit note for a completely paid invoice or bill.

    We should be able to turn an invoice into a credit note, when having a minus figure.

    Currently, when raising a multitude of sales invoices, I will copy and paste the previous invoice and change the figure to match my internal report. However, when I come across a minis figure, I will have to manually go through invoices> new credit note and copy all the information from the description over and post the credit, then go back onto invoices>new invoices for another new invoice, and keep fluctuating between the two constantly.

    It would be beneficial if a positive figure on new invoice kept it as a sales invoice, and a minus figure the system could pick this up as a credit note :)
