Check whether the correction concerns a mistaken receipt, a genuine payment, or only the document wording.
1. Open the invoice
Go to Invoicing → Invoices and open the intended document. Confirm its customer and current status.
2. Review the payment
Open Manage Payments → History. Compare the amount and date with the receipt that actually occurred.
3. Correct a mistaken record
If no money arrived and the payment was recorded by mistake, use the supported reversal in History. Then check which invoice fields become editable. Do not reverse a genuine receipt to unlock the invoice.
4. Correct a changed sale
For a real cancelled order or price reduction, use the invoice’s Refund or Create Credit Note flow. Review the amount, tax, and any money being returned.
5. Save allowed wording changes
A paid invoice can still allow notes, terms, descriptions, or custom fields. Save permitted changes and preview them. Customer and currency lock when a payment is recorded; a fully paid invoice also locks its money details.
