You may also optionally set the Rate/RatePercent/PriceLevel, Quantity, Description, Class, TaxCode, ServiceDate, and Amount for each item as well.

The class supports a variety of other operations as well. The class's Get, Cancel, and Delete methods may be used to retrieve, cancel, and delete CreditMemos, respectively. The ObjSearch Class may be used to search for CreditMemos in the QuickBooks database.
