In Accounts Payable credit memo and debit memo are entered
with -ve amount but in Accounts Receivable why credit memo
has -ve amonut and debit memo + ve?

Answer Posted / raghuka

In general debit memo for receivables will increse AR
balance and credit memo will decrease.

The assumption in AP is that if there is a difference in
invoice and is noticed by buyer he will send the debit memo
with -ve amount to decrease payable balance, if the
discrepancy is already notified and supplier sends the
credit memo, buyer will record it with -ve sign.

one more way of Anyalyzing is Debit memos are sent by
suppliers to increase their AR balance but when buyer sends
he record with -ve sign

Comments Appreciated.
