How to delete a sale safely

Delete a sale only when it was entered by mistake and should not remain in business records.

Deleting a sale changes business totals, balances and possibly stock movement.

Before deleting

  • Check that the sale is truly wrong.
  • Check whether the sale is linked to inventory.
  • Check whether it came from an invoice payment.
  • Check the date and account affected.

After deleting

  • Review dashboard totals.
  • Review account balances.
  • Review stock if inventory was linked.
