Editing and Changing a Finalised Invoice

Editing and Changing a Finalised Invoice

You can edit an Invoice so long as the invoice is in draft state. If you've made a mistake, you may want to edit an Invoice that has been finalised or sent, providing it hasn't had a payment recorded against it. While you can remove accidental payments from an Invoice, we recommend using an Adjustment Note to make any changes to a partially paid Invoice, so you can keep a record of all transactions. 

Editing an Invoice will not update the existing Invoice you've already sent to the customer. You'll need to resend the updated version.
