Corrections

Issue credit and debit notes

Correct an issued invoice the way FBR expects: a note linked to the original IRN, not a deleted record.

8 min4 steps
  1. 01

    Leave the original invoice in place

    Once an invoice has an IRN, do not treat it as a draft you can erase. Corrections travel as credit or debit notes against that IRN.

  2. 02

    Choose the right note

    A credit note reduces what was billed. A debit note increases it. Pick the one that matches the commercial change.

  3. 03

    Reference the original IRN and a reason code

    Link the note to the original invoice and use a reason FBR recognizes. Search by buyer NTN, STRN, or invoice number if you need to find the source document first.

  4. 04

    Submit and keep both documents

    Validate and submit the note like any other document. Dashboard totals should exclude cancelled invoices rather than counting them as live sales.
