Reversing a bill creates a complete reversal of the original bill. The full amount must be reversed.

This process will return all WIP to the client ledger for use in future bills.

There are 3 tasks to complete:

Post the reversal bill
Allocate the reverse invoice in the Debtors Ledger against the original invoice. You may issue a new invoice for the correct amount.

Open the relevant client. The Client page opens.

Click the bill you want to reverse in the Full Billing History.
Click Reverse. A Bill Reversal confirmation message appears.
Click Yes. A draft version of the bill is created for today’s date and listed in the Draft Bills list.
Double-click the new draft bill to open it in the Billing Main page.
Click to open the Bill Paragraphs window and review them.
Make changes if required.
Click OK to return to the Billing Main page.
Change the Invoice date if required.

If the original invoice is in a prior period:
Bill reversals are processed in the current open period so that the end of month reports for the previous period(s) are not adversely affected.
