“Review a sample of post year-end credit notes to identify any that relate to pre-year-end transactions to verify that they have not been included in receivables.” May I know this SP is related to which assertion? Thank you.

Is this related to “Completeness” and “Cut off”?
Not completeness of receivables. It is to do with existence. If a sale is reversed after year end it didn’t really occur. A potential way to fraudulently increase sales is to process false invoices just before year then reversed by credit notes just after year end.
