If the original transactions are posted into GL, then the transactions can not be modified in the respective sub-ledgers. If you want to modify the account balances for some reasons, then you have to enter the debit memo or credit memo to adjust the account balances previously entered.

A credit memo is an invioce that reduces the amount due to a  customer's invioce. This usually occurs becuase the customer has returned some of the goods (goods returned ) the adjustments carried out here affects the original invioce.

A debit memo is a reuest  from customer  for the reduction of the amount stated on his or her invoice.  This docment simply notifies the company or organisation to carry out the adjustment. it does not in it self affect the original invoice.
