Credit memos are created when a product is returned. Credit memos reduce A/R (accounts receivable) by crediting the account, and it writes off the invoice. This also records a debit to the Sales Returns and Allowances account.

I have noticed that the A/R clerk has created an abnormally high number of credit memos. I also notice the inventory does not reflect the additional inventory resulting from the sales returns and allowances. What should I do, and how would I document my decision?
