Invoice Deletion upon Job Removal

Summary:

Automate the deletion of associated invoices in the account package when a job is deleted from the Portal.

Description:

  • Currently, when a job is removed from the Portal, its corresponding invoice remains in the account package. This can lead to discrepancies and confusion in financial records.

  • The proposal is to ensure that when a job is deleted, its attached invoice is also automatically removed from the account package, ensuring data consistency and reducing manual cleanup tasks.

Intended Outcome:

  • Maintain data consistency between jobs and their associated invoices.

  • Reduce manual interventions and potential errors by automating the invoice deletion process.

  • Streamline financial record-keeping by ensuring only relevant invoices are retained in the account package.

How Will It Work?

  • Upon the deletion of a job from the Portal, the system will trigger a check to identify any attached invoices.

  • If an associated invoice is found, the system will automatically delete it from the account package.

  • Users will receive a confirmation notification, ensuring transparency in the process.

Potential Considerations:

  • Implement safeguards to prevent accidental deletions.

  • Offer an option to restore deleted invoices within a specific timeframe, in case of errors or changes in decision.

    Hi all,

    Thanks for your suggestions to enhance the platform. I’m happy to say that this feature is now available, but “off” by default.

    To enable this feature, in the web portal go to Settings → Accounts → Invoices. In there, you’ll notice a new setting for automatically cancelling Invoices upon Job deletion.

    Are we able to have this actioned? I don’t know why it hasn’t been already, it’s common sense that if a job is deleted then the invoice would need to be deleted as well, it should delete with the job, not have to be done separately.

    I feel this request needs to be moved to planned, I was doing a dump to my MYOB this morning from last weeks jobs and a job that had been deleted it's invoice was still in my accounting section.
