Credit note to be issued for Debit Note in GSTR-1

Dear Experts,
 
For the Invoice of Nov-2018 we have issued an Debit Note in Feb-2019. now the consignment is returned (sales Returns). The customer is denied to Pay for the Debit note since it was raised for the Freight Charges on the original Consignment. 
 
Now we have raised an Credit note to Customer for the Debit note issued earlier.
In GSTR-1 while uploading the Credit & Debit Note it is not accepting the Original Invoice Number ( Debit note-Number) .
 
 If we Mention the Nov-2018 Invoice , it will be time barred-because We can issue only up to Sep-of the Assessment year . i.e. in our case this credit note have been issued by Sep-2019.
 
Please suggest on this issue. Your valuable feedback is awaited.
 
Thanks & regards,
Bhavya.P

Quick Summary
A user is seeking advice on how to issue a credit note for a previously issued debit note in GSTR-1. The debit note was for freight charges on an invoice from November 2018, and the customer has returned the consignment, refusing to pay the debit note. The challenge lies in linking the credit note to the original debit note in GSTR-1, as the original invoice date makes it time-barred for filing.

No...
We can't file/show the debit/credit note for the FY 18-19 in the FY 19-20's returns on or before filing of September-19 GST returns (due date is 20th October-19).
You can request to customer for issue a fresh Invoice against this Debit not & you can book this current year
