An invoice adds vital accounting information to your company records in terms of stock, profit, debtors and turnover. Jim2 gathers the information from invoices (as well as purchases, returns to vendors, returns from customers and payments) and creates entries into your transaction journal which updates your general ledger.
|
It is preferable to process a Return From Customer to offset the invoice, then re-invoice if necessary. Unprinting an invoice should be used as a last resort and users should consider all ramifications of proceeding with an unprint.
Unprint is only suggested for recently created invoices with minor errors. |

Unprinting aged invoices can impact on GST BAS reporting. |
The following circumstances will not allow you to unprint an invoice:
▪A return from customer has been entered for that invoice.
▪The related period is closed.
▪The invoice is in a previous financial year (this is calculated using information in Options, not the current date).
Jim2 will produce a warning for users attempting to unprint an invoice if the invoice is in a previous BAS/GST period.
