recovery of a canceled invoice

Happy to help, @Gosia81

 

I'll make sure your deleted invoice will be back to your account. Thus, your income report will stay accurate at all times. 

 

We're unable to recover deleted invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed. The closest workaround to this is to reenter the details in the system. Then, manually mark them as paid. 

 

Go as follows: 

 

  1. Go to the Invoices menu. 
  2. Select the Create invoice tab. 
  3. Complete the necessary details and click Save.
  4. Click the small drop-down arrow under Action and choose Mark as paid


If you need help remembering the invoice details, you can look them up on your bank or income statement if applicable. This allows you to record accurate data.

I have  inadvertently deleted an invoice that I had sent out that hadn't had paid. Can I retrieve that as I can't recall the details.

Thank you for joining this thread, Rich.

 

The option to retrieve a deleted invoice and its details is currently unavailable. Alternatively, you can refer to your bank statement for the invoice information.

 

This article provides more insights about the Invoicing feature and outlines the steps to generate the entry on your mobile device: Create invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

 

If your customer is ready to make a payment or has already completed it, enter the transaction manually. Additionally, make sure to categorise them according to the SAF103F deduction categories. This will help you keep track of your income and expenses, allowing you to identify which areas of your self-employed business are most significant.
