Do you have details of the error? The ID of the request that threw the error?

[sullen coral]

Thats a request id

im getting this error messaage: The sum of credit_amount, refund_amount and out_of_band_amount ($1,000.00) must equal the credit note amount ($900.00) on a paid invoice

My invoice is 1800

but when i try to issue credit for 900 still throw an error i tried with small mount still same error

same invoice another request req_QurHyc7V3DtqnB

Yeah we think this has to do with the coupon/discount applied to the invoice, confirming the maths

[sullen coral]

yes we have ormo code applied 10%

original line item cost was 2000 and 10% discount after 1800 was paid

Doesn't that mean we can issue credit up to 1800?

[frozen bramble]

I don't understand CreditNotes, but I'd suggest just doing it in the Dashboard and then you can copy what it does.

It send this:

{
  "invoice": "in_xxx",
  "lines": {
    "0": {
      "type": "invoice_line_item",
      "invoice_line_item": "il_xxx",
      "amount": "100000"
    }
  },
  "refund_amount": "90000",
  "reason": "product_unsatisfactory",
 
}

I think the idea is whatever amount you intend to credit($1000 in your case), you have to discount that by the 10% because there was already a discount applied. That's presumably why the Dashboard converts this into a $900 refund when you credit $1000.

[sullen coral]

hmmm

[frozen bramble]

if you want to refund $1000 exactly apparently you need to credit by $1111.11 (i.e. 110%).

I don't understand it either really but hopefully that unblocks you in terms of actual development

just use the Dashboard and copy the API requests it makes if you want to use CreditNotes

[sullen coral]

This will work but very wierd isn't it the 1800 was post discount on my line item haha

if i need to do full refund then i need to pass pre disocunt amount ?

[frozen bramble]

you pass the pre discount amount to the line[0].amount , and the post-discount(actually paid) to refund_amount

[sullen coral]

Yeah its working now that way

but for the invoice which does not have a discount it work without doing this

[frozen bramble]

yep

it's just however "CreditNotes + Discounts" work , which I don't really have an intuitive understanding of myself(I never really use this API) but hopefully this unblocks you in the actual development side

[sullen coral]

have to do some logic before passing amount but yeah overall it works
