What is the difference between debit note and invoice?

Debit Notes are Transactions signifying a payment that your Customer Owes you, just like Invoices. In fact structurally they are very much like Invoices. Though they have a different meaning. Invoices always depict Sales or Service rendered , while Debit Notes on the other hand are used for deducting money from your Customer's Account without a sale being made.

Debit Notes are always raised for doing adjustments in the Accounts and is not for invocing a sale to Customer. Invoices are always raised against the sale.
