Deleted a Sales Invoice Incorrectly Nav16

Hi,

I deleted a Sales Invoice incorrectly in NAV 16 I see the audit trail that the GL still has the invoice amounts posted but what happens once the payment needs to be applied?  If I run the Posted Invoices query I can't find any record of the invoice by number or customer.  What is a good work around for this?

    Unfortunately standard NAV allows you to delete Posted sales invoice (card) but g/l entries and other entries will exist.

    Don't delete posted sales invoice. Use credit memo for that.

    Have you deleted the invoice accidently or do you want to intent to delete to remove the entries. If you want to reverse an invoice then you need to use credit memo, but if you accidently deleted an invoice and want to create then you need to do some customization.

    Can you remove the ability to delete a posted invoice, to avoid this happening?

    With a very minor customization you will be able to implement this. You might have to talk to your NAV partner about the modification you required. In some of the localizations (Iceland) you have this functionality in-built.

    Something worth a try

    Post the Cash Receipt. Now go to the customer ledger entry and select the Posted Sales Invoice and click "Apply Entries". Now select the the Cash Receipt and click "Post Application"

    It was an accidental deletion, we normally create a credit memo to reverse posted sales invoices.  I can  see the GL entries on the balance sheet, I do not have a payment to apply the document to.  My current theory is to reverse the GL distribution for the entry and than create a new invoice with the same information so once the payment comes AR will be able to apply the payment.

    Hi Ammolh Saallvi,

    In this scenario I am using business central how can I get the deleted "posted sales invoice" "id" with data on the PSI screen... it is possible?

    For example, I deleted the id "103170" but this id is in CLE, GL Entry, how can I retrieve this "id".

    kind regards

    Nagarjun
