Debit Note

A Debit Note Voucher is a document issued by a buyer to a seller, indicating that the buyer intends to reduce the amount owed to the seller, often due to issues like receiving damaged goods, incorrect quantities, or errors in billing. It's essentially the buyer's way of requesting an increase in their payable balance or a reduction in the seller’s receivable balance.
