The reverse is for debit memo. (i.e) to reduce the suppliers
credit balance debit memo is used. Credit memo is used to
increase the purchase value of the bill out side the AP invoice

Credit memo: A sales document created on the basis of a
customer complaint. This reduces receivables in Financial
Accounting.
Debit memo: A sales document created on the basis of a
customer complaint. This increases receivables in Financial
Accounting.
You may need to create credit memos for various reasons (for
example, because of defective goods or because you have
overcharged a customer). Similarly, you may need to create a
debit memo, if, for example, you have not charged the
customer enough.
