<h2 id="faq">FAQ</h2>

<p><b>Can I reopen a cancelled sale invoice?</b><br>No. Cancelled invoices remain in the system for audit only. Create a new sale invoice if the transaction is still valid.</p>

<p><b>Does cancellation reverse inventory and receivables?</b><br>Yes, when a posted invoice is cancelled, linked stock and customer balance effects are reversed per system rules.</p>

<p><b>Why is Cancel Notes empty on some rows?</b><br>The user may not have entered notes at cancellation. Encourage mandatory notes in your sales workflow.</p>

<p><b>How is this different from Cancelled Credit Notes?</b><br>This report covers sale invoices. <a href="#/sales/reports/cancelled-credit">Cancelled Credit Notes</a> covers cancelled credit notes only.</p>
<p><b>Why was an invoice cancelled?</b><br>Audit report only — reason is in cancel notes on the invoice approval log.</p>

<p><b>Does cancelled invoice still show in Sale Report?</b><br>No. Cancelled bills are excluded from standard sale reports.</p>
