Guidelines for Deleting a Customer or Supplier Receipt (Voucher) in Qoyod
If you want to delete a customer or supplier receipt for any reason, such as incorrectly recording a payment on an invoice or making an erroneous payment, the method of handling differs depending on the situation. Therefore, it is recommended to first identify the appropriate scenario before taking any action.
First: Identify the Situation
Before deleting the receipt or modifying the transaction, make sure of your situation:
-
Was the payment (receipt added) completely recorded by mistake?
-
Was the payment made on the wrong invoice (i.e., the receipt was allocated to the wrong invoice)?
-
Was an amount greater than the invoice value paid?
Based on that, follow the appropriate procedure below
Case One: Payment Was Completely Recorded by Mistake
In this case, you can delete the receipt (voucher) to cancel the entire transaction.
Steps to Delete a Customer Receipt (Voucher)
-
Go to Sales
-
Select Customer Receipts
-
Search for the required receipt (voucher)
-
Click the delete icon next to the receipt
Steps to Delete a Supplier Receipt (Voucher)
-
Go to Purchases
-
Select Supplier Receipts
-
Search for the required receipt
-
Click the delete icon next to the receipt
Case Two: Payment Was Made on the Wrong Invoice
In this case, it is not recommended to delete the receipt. Instead, you can only unassign it from the invoice and then reuse it.
Steps:
-
Go to Sales (or Purchases, depending on the situation)
-
Select Customer Receipts or Supplier Receipts
-
Click View next to the required receipt
-
The invoice linked to the receipt will appear
-
Click Delete Assignment next to the invoice
The receipt will remain and can be assigned to another invoice correctly.
Case Three: An Amount Greater Than the Invoice Value Was Paid
In this case, it is not recommended to delete the receipt, because the payment is correct but contains an excess amount.
You can handle the excess amount through:
-
Keeping it as a balance/credit for the customer/supplier to use later
-
Or returning the amount by issuing another receipt.
