The following are the rules for assigning entities to credit memo orders and debit memo orders:
■ If a credit memo or debit memo order has a linked invoice number (the Invoice # field is populated on the Overview tab of the Enter and edit orders window), the order's entity always equals the entity of the original order's invoice.
For example, A is the original order's entity, and B is the entity of the credit memo's first product line. If you populate the Invoice # field with the original order's Invoice number, the credit memo's entity will still be A (the entity of the original invoice) even though B is the entity of the first product line.
■ If the order does not have a linked invoice number, the order's entity calculates according to the hierarchy defined in Assigning Entities to Standard Orders.
As in the previous example, where B is the entity of the credit memo's first product line, the credit memo's entity will still be B.
