About
If an invoice has been raised against a debtor account in error it must
be reversed and re-posted correctly. Reversing an invoice can be managed
in two ways:
- From Audit Trail
- Reversed through SiPOS
Reverse an Invoice - Audit Trail
Invoices can be reversed in Audit Trail for the
CURRENT SHIFT only. Once End of Shift has been processed
this functionality is no longer available. It is a useful tool to
reverse the invoice however as the entire sale is reversed in one transaction.
Users with the appropriate level of access may use this
feature.
- From the Sysnet
Toolbar click on the Audit icon
- When Audit Trail is opened the current shift
sales and activity will be displayed on screen by default
- The transaction can be located from the list
using the following methods:
- Docket Number
- click on the "Docket Number" column heading to sort
the dockets in order and scroll to find it
- Filter by
Account - Click on the
ADVANCED FILTERS dropdown menu at the top of the Audit
window and select "Filter by Account" or press F8 on
the keyboard to search for the Debtor
- Sale Total
- click on the "Sale Total" column heading to filter
the transaction amounts in order and scroll to find the sale amount
- Once the transaction is located and highlighted,
the details of the transaction will appear below
- Right click on the transaction and select <REVERSE TRANSACTION>
- A confirmation window will appear, select
<YES> if absolutely
SURE this is the correct transaction
to be reversed
- The transaction will now be reversed and
appear in the Audit Trail as a negative transaction with the same
Docket Number but a different Transaction ID number
Reverse an Invoice - SiPOS
This option can be used to reverse an invoice on any day not only the
day it was charged. This is a good option for reversal as it will
reverse the entire invoice and create a note against the invoice with
the reversal information.
- From the Sysnet
Toolbar click on the SiPOS icon
- From the SiPOS
Toolbar click on the ACCOUNTS dropdown and select PAY ACCOUNT INVOICE
- Type the name of the Debtor or use <ALT + S> to search for it
- A list of all unpaid invoices for the Debtor
will appear
- Locate and highlight the invoice to be reversed,
right click on it and select REVERSE
INVOICE
- A warning prompt will appear, select <YES> if absolutely SURE this is the correct transaction
to be reversed, select <NO>
to go back and change the invoice
- A comment box will appear with details of
the reversed invoice, this
note will be posted against the debtor and will appear on the Debtor
Statement
- A confirmation of the reversal will appear
- The reversal will now appear in the list
as a separate invoice number along with comments for the reversal
