Hi Tanja

There is very little difference between an adjustment and a dr/cr note.

Adjustments provide more flexibility because you can apply them against credit notes, debit notes, adjustments or payments, whereas dr/cr notes can only be applied against invoices. However, adjustments require more thinking because you have a 50/50 chance of making the adjustment in the wrong direction. You are forced to make a dr/cr note in the right direction once you decide whether you want to enter a debit or a credit note.

Personally, I use adjustments for internal corrections, and dr/cr notes for corrections initiated by the customer/vendor.
