Invoices - Unapprove option
Ability to unapprove invoices once it’s already approved.
Purpose: it’s easier to have this feature if users approved the wrong invoices by mistake.

It's been years - it's not getting done, folks. Xero doesn't care so may as well let this feature request die.

Yes, please, that function would be amazing. We sometime approve an invoice and then have an issue with stock so have to hold the invoice in approved rather than being able to divert it back to draft.

so when is this happening?

This would be incredibly helpful! Reverting to draft for invoices and bills also, would greatly assist when the incorrect options have been selected instead of having to make a mental note.

Yes please it would be very handy to be able to "revert to draft" a Draft Sales invoice that has been approved. I accidentally "approved" a Draft Sales invoice so would be very handy to have this feature (I'm surprised Xero has not provided what seems a very simple feature).

@Angela - agree with you - I have one that is still to be paid due to the work not being completed and should have been billed accordingly however till Xero sort this I put a note next to the Invoice # - DO NOT PAY so it's visible when looking at the awaiting payment list as it shows in the Reference.

I would like to un-approve an invoice as an issue came up after it was approved and isn't as straight forward as deleting it or crediting it at the moment. A 'remove approval' option would be valuable with this one whilst the invoice is being checked by the supplier so that colleagues don't pay it in the payment run without the need of having to add notes to invoice and other documents until sorted.

This has been a long time request. Any reason it cannot be created?

That is a useful feature as sometimes invoices are approved in error and it would be very helpful to have the option to revert them back to Draft - like GST report for example, can be reverted back to Draft.

Yes! Expenses also. Also ability to flag both invoice/bill if instalment plan or query happening.

This would take xero to the next level

Ability to unapproved an invoice, but also an expense. If the approve button was pressed but on reflection it shouldn't have been, then it's crazy this can not be undone

Good morning,
I approved and invoice and tried the new version which gave me the option to Copy to draft (righthand corner … 3 dots)
I had to add the client’s name to the invoice to save it. I then went back to the classic version. From drafts I move the invoice over to “waiting for approval” You do however have to add documentation if you had any attached. -

If an issue is found with an invoice after it has been approved reverting to draft will prevent accidental payment. It doesnt happen often but the option to Dispute an invoice would be good too.

Yes agreed. You need to be able to revert to Draft.

Invoicing: please do not retire the current invoicing option. Also adding the button to be able to reverse the invoice to DRAFTS would be quite helpful. Other than that, the current invoicing features are working well and very user friendly as apposite to the new invoicing.

I agree with Allison Walker and 8 years is a long time to be waiting for a revert button. Please address soonest. It would make invoicing the "dream" that you portray to prospective users in your TV commercials.
