How do I mark an invoice as sent, or void a wrong one?

Sales Executive

What you'll do: Use Mark as Sent once you've emailed the invoice PDF. To cancel a mistaken invoice, use Void Invoice — but only while it has never been sent and has no payments.

Marking an invoice as sent

As with quotes, you email the PDF yourself and record that you did.

  1. On an Issued invoice, click Mark as Sent and confirm.
  2. The sent timestamp is stamped permanently.

Important: once an invoice is marked as sent, it can never be voided. This is the point of no return for correcting a wrong invoice.

Voiding an invoice

Void is only available when all of these are true: the invoice is Issued, has never been marked as sent, and has no payments.

  1. On a qualifying invoice, click Void Invoice, enter a reason (10–500 characters), and confirm.
  2. The invoice becomes Void (kept for audit). The dispatch it came from is freed, so you can generate a corrected invoice from the same dispatch. If the Sales Order had auto-closed, it reopens.

If you can't void

  • "Invoice has been marked as sent; void is not permitted (use Credit Note for corrections)"
  • "Invoice has recorded payments; void is not permitted (use Credit Note for corrections)"

Both point to Credit Notes — which are not available in this version — so a sent or paid invoice has no in-app correction path. See Why can't I void this invoice? and Can I issue a credit note?.
