Parameters

Parameter	Description
invoiceId	Type ID Description The REST service evaluates this invoice for invoice lines with a negative balance. For each invoice, it creates a credit note containing one credit note line for each negative invoice line, unless an error occurs during credit note line creation. If even one of the `-ve` invoice line conversions errors out, all of them fail. No partial conversion can occur. Each credit note line has a balance that’s the positive equivalent of the corresponding negative invoice line. The credit note lines are unallocated, so users must manually allocate them as needed.
