Debit Note Voucher in tally

A Debit Note in Tally is generally used when a business needs to increase the amount receivable from a customer or reduce the amount payable to a supplier, depending on the nature of the transaction.

For purchase-related transactions, a debit note is commonly used when goods purchased from a supplier are returned or when the supplier needs to reduce the amount payable/adjust the purchase transaction.

For accounting practice, a debit note can be recorded with the appropriate Purchase Return/Debit Note ledger and GST adjustment.
