I have a purchase invoice which was created but we are not going to pay it.
How do I delete it being that it is in a locked accounting period?
Thank you
If it is locked into a period, the only way to delete it would be to undo the year end to make it available to delete.
But if I do that then it changes my opening balance and I can not do that as the last accounts have been submitted already.
Thank you
Hi @betty
Are you able to provide any further information on your situation please? For example, why are you not paying the invoice? Is it that it’s been credited by the supplier, or it’s a duplicate?
Depends on the situation, depends how it can be handled.
It was paid another way and should not have been included in this account.
So to confirm, the invoice was genuine and has been issued (hasn’t been cancelled or credited)?
How was it paid? If it was through contra-invoicing or similar for example, it can still be accounted for within QuickFile.
It was meant for someone else and somehow landed in this quickfile and now i want to delete it
The only way to delete it would be as my colleague @QFBeth mentioned above, which would involve rolling back your year end. If that’s not possible, I would raise a credit note against it. As it’s not been paid, it would just set the outstanding balance to nil.
That is what i wanted to do but it is not giving me the option of issuing a credit note
Without seeing the invoice itself, it’s a bit tricky to say. Let me send you a private message and we’ll take a look
