Issue credit note

post
https://api.wafeq.com/v1/zatca/simplified-credit-notes/issue/

Issues a simplified credit note and automatically queues reporting to ZATCA.

Uses the same payload and local validation rules as report. Returns 202 Accepted after saving the signed XML and QR code, without waiting for ZATCA. Use the returned document ID with the existing download endpoint (type=xml or type=pdf). PDF rendering runs on demand or in the background; it is not part of issuance latency.

Local validation does not mean ZATCA has accepted the document. Follow reporting using the document retrieval endpoint or webhooks. The signed XML and QR code remain unchanged during retries and stay downloadable if reporting is delayed or rejected. Sending through channels is queued after issuance and does not wait for successful reporting. Delivery retries preserve completed channels.

Available only for simplified documents. The existing report endpoint continues to wait for a ZATCA response.
