If a purrrec has been invoiced and the date on the invoice is in the next month of the receipt, then you will need to firstly reverse the invoice dating it the date of the invoice, then reverse the receipt with the date of the receipt if both need to be reversed. If you only need to reverse the Purchase invoice then you are fine.


  1. In the navigation panel, click on Purchasing then Invoices.
  2. On the left hand side of the screen is a list of all of your Purchase Invoices
  3. When searching for a Purchase Invoices use the transaction number search field to be precise.
