Credit for unpaid invoice

Hi all,

 

I am a new bookkeeper, our company had an invoice of $35,000.00 for October, the invoice has not been paid but it was recorded in MYOB in Oct. The BAS for Oct has been lodged and this week I received a credit of $100,000.00 from the supplier. I created a new invoice (same invoice number) with a new invoice date (which is the date I received this credit) with a negative $100,000.00 in MYOB to against the original invoice.

My question is the way I did above is correct? 

 

Thanks.

    Seems like a pretty solid process to me. 

    I would just make sure that the negative transaction is dated in the appropriate period as this is the date it will be reported on for BAS and other reports.

      Thanks Steve. I used 1st November as the invoice date for the negative transaction.
