[CL] Bulk Upload - Credit and debit notes

A credit note (Nota de Crédito, 61) cancels or reduces a document already issued. A debit note (Nota de Débito, 56) increases it. For the general upload steps and format rules, see the Chile bulk upload manual.

Each row in the file is one item. A note with several items takes several rows with the same Invoice External ID; repeat the document columns with the same values on each of those rows.

Things to check before uploading

  • The document type of the note matches the original: a ticket is credited with credit note ticket.
  • Original Invoice BRINTA id is the Brinta ID, not your own external ID or the folio.
  • A partial note does not exceed the amount of the original document.
