    Really need this feature be added. Either by enabling you to reuse the same invoice number from a voided invoice or to at least go in an edit the invoice number of the voided invoice to make it unique. This seems like something that could be a really easy fix.

    Support !!! Thisis a MUST needed featues in a mature system.
    A proper clean and sweep off the deleted invoice number is the flexibility for remedies function for users if we are accidentially deleted that particular invoice number and MUST require to clean it off without residue likea ghost inside the Xero system. In some situations, it helps to co-operate and recconnect the external application linking.

    In my case, it helps to prove the fact rather than forced someone to head-down and consent this is our fault than a system bugs on that software.

    100% this feature is needed - either give us the ability to fully delete invoices so we can re-create new ones with the same number or let us un-void an invoice so that we can use the invoice number we have locked up!

  • stuart collings commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please add function to reinstate a voided invoice. We had one deleted in error and paid for by the client, but now can only match their payment against a new invoice for as a payment without invoice.

    Please allow me to use void invoice number. Mistake happens sometime and we need to fix it

    This effects my sequential numbering & is really frustrating.

    Can we not simply have an 'unapproved' feature instead of being forced to void, in case of errors or change of circumstance to a job?

  • Fares Boustanji commented  ·   ·  Report

    It seems almost impossible to retrieve a void invoice while in accounting you should always have connecting invoice number. So once removed is not changeable seems to me for fraud tax. please change this in your system so that we as a company do not commit “fraud”.

  • Fayad Elmouhamed commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is causing me angst. I need that invoice number, and I can't use it. A completely stupid system that I won't be using for much longer. At least financial year is ending soon and I can get rid of this ****

  • Nathan Apter commented  ·   ·  Report

    One more area where the Xero system is unbelievably stupid.

    I can delete an invoice. I can void an invoice. But I can't delete a voided invoice. Makes no sense.

    I can change an invoice number before voiding, then void. Why can't I change it once its voided if I forgot to do it?

    This causes serious issues when attempting to integrate Xero with anything else.

    So frustrating.
