When trying to delete an incorrect purchase invoice and you see the message “Cannot delete the invoice because it will result in negative inventory,” this means the quantity is insufficient to delete the invoice. You can follow these steps:
- Record the Correct Invoice:
- First, enter the correct invoice that contains the accurate details.
- Delete the Old Invoice:
- After recording the correct invoice, you can delete the old invoice that contains the incorrect data.
Additional Notes:
- If the quantity of products is insufficient to delete the incorrect invoice after adding the correct invoice, you must provide sufficient quantity by adding new quantities.
- The “destroy the record” error when trying to delete a purchase invoice means the same reason as above: the quantity in the invoice is not actually available in inventory. Solution: the customer must first add a correct purchase invoice that enters the quantity into inventory, then delete the incorrect invoice.
