Voiding or cancelling a sale should only be used where products have not been fulfilled to the customer (Refunds should be used in that instance). Voiding a sale will still reverse any stock movements and cancel Gift Vouchers/Credit Notes, but is designed for the intention where a sale was created in error.
Before you Begin
- Payments are not automatically cancelled or reversed; ensure to reverse any Payments prior to voiding a sale
- Payments cannot be accessed, cancelled or reversed after a sale is Voided
- Once a sale has been voided it cannot be edited/reinstated
- Access to voiding sales can be done via Security Profiles
- Once a sale is voided Products will have their inventory movements reversed (you can track these stock movements via the Inventory Movement Log)
Payments must be manually reversed prior to cancelling, otherwise the payment will continue to appear in both the Cash Up via the End of Day Report and the Income Report.
Voiding Credit Notes / Vouchers
Void can be used to cancel a Credit note or Voucher when it is no longer required, ensuring it is no longer available for redemption in any way e.g. if there was a credit note created by accident or with the wrong value.
To cancel the Credit note or Voucher:
- Navigate to the original sale
- Reverse any payments
- Continue to Void
The Credit Note or Voucher will be moved to a cancelled Sales/Order status and will no longer be redeemable.
