thanks you guys for implementing this

Hi

This is very important. At this point trying to fully integrate very simple product to xero is just impossible.

Hi guys,

Is there an ETA on putting payments on credit notes (i.e. refunds) via the API yet?

You can now allocate credit notes to invoices - see http://developer.xero.com/api/Credit-Notes/#PUT

Credit Note refunds shouldn't be too far away.

We have a system where clients pay a deposit. Then, after the event the deposit is refunded.

Also, the client's order may change after a payment is made.

Yeah!, can't wait. It will make conversions so much more beautiful.

hey guys, just wondering if there's an update? Here's my use case: automated integration with Recurly where we are batching up all renewals and refunds for one day into one invoice per day. Some days there will be more renewals than refunds and some days there will be the opposite. So we might end up with negative invoices

This is a rather important feature. Apply payment to credit note that link to a particular invoice. Right now, making payment to credit note is not even possible :(

This functionality is really needed. We have 5 Xero account and need it for all. It's still under review - Do you have any updates?

This is critical. Right now we are choosing from several elaborate, ugly workarounds for this.

yes this is needed absolutely

The ability to apply a credit note as a payment to an invoice and apply a payment to a credit note would be of great assistance.

I also need this to provide more than a very shallow Xero integration with my app.

In our case I can't see the point of credit notes if we're not able to apply them to invoices. This would seem to be a pretty obvious feature. Non-recurring invoice templates would be very handy too.

Use case #1:
1. Customer needs a refund
2. Create credit memo for customer
3. Create "Credit memo payment" originating from bank account

Use case #2:
1. Customers pay a consulting retainer
2. Create credit memo for customer
3. Create invoices for customer as consulting services are rendered
4. "Allocate credit" towards invoices (instead of issuing an invoice payment)

Use case #3:
1. Customer overpays an invoice
2. Issue credit memo for the customer
3. Create "Credit memo payment" originating from bank account

Maybe as a first step, you could make payments available for Credit Notes. Then we could at least pay them off. Assigning them to other invoices could be handled through a clearing bank account without the need for the API handling that directly, but we need to be able to pay them through the API.

We're definitely interested, the workaround with the AP invoice works but is not ideal.

well the use case is pretty obvious if you want to automate refunds. please bump it.
