OAGIS BOD combining the verb Process and the noun DebitCreditNote. Business cornerstone of the finance domain in the OAGIS 10.x ecosystem.

BOD purpose

The ProcessDebitCreditNote BOD issues a debit note (additional charge to the customer) or a credit note (refund / credit memo). Canonical equivalent of EDIFACT INVOIC with credit / debit qualifier or X12 812 (Credit/Debit Adjustment).

Structure (ApplicationArea + DataArea)

As every OAGIS BOD, ProcessDebitCreditNote stacks an ApplicationArea technical envelope (Sender, BODID, CreationDateTime) and a DataArea business payload containing the verb Process and the noun DebitCreditNote.

XML example

Minimal OAGIS 10.x payload for didactic purposes. The structural elements (header + business line) are required in any conformant implementation.
