Edit an Invoice

You may wish to edit an invoice to update the subject, due date, line items (and the total amount), or delivery method. In any or all of these cases, you can edit any invoice by clicking on the Edit button right below the Invoice Name at the top left in View, or by clicking on the Edit Icon to the right of the List View.

In most cases, you can change any of the details as if you were creating the invoice. This even includes changing the line items, but doing so will affect the total and of course the outstanding amounts.

Follow these guides to learn how to edit an Invoice for each Module:

• Client Invoicing
• Project Invoicing
• Ticket Invoicing
• Retainer Invoicing
