    Hi Duma

    this is very normal in Dynamics NAV. In some certain circumstances when the un-posted Sales Invoice is deleted, system creates the Posted Sales Invoice with zero values and description 'Deleted Document'. This happens to prevent gaps in posted invoice numbers (auditors prefer deleted documents, over the 'gaps' in numbers).

    Thank you Robet....

    But usually we are posting invoice directly from document Sales Order,  we are never create sales invoice and then posting it. and this circumstances is first time while we often to delete outstanding SO (useless Sales Order) that's why I'm still confused.

    And that might actually explain it - probably someone accidentally started creating Sales Invoice instead of Sales Order, realized it later and deleted it.

    You might be able to tell the user who created it. If you go to that particular Posted Sales Invoice, click the blue button on the top-left and select 'Help'->'About this Page'. On the page that system opens, expand the 'Table Fields' and look for the field 'User Id' (it is sorted alphabetically, so should be near the bottom of the list). That filed should indicate which user deleted the invoice.

    Hii Robertas,

    thank you for your respond, so feel respected :)

     I think this isn't accidentally cause there is the  Sales Order document no. and to make sure I have been asking to the user who concerned about this document. she doesn't create Sales Invoice, she said just deleted sales order where the sales order actually must be revision line item but because one or more reasons which she must to delete it.

    If you use "Same No. Sequence for Sales Invoice & Posted Sales Invoice both". Then, In this case only the system creates an Empty Posted Sales Invoice line to maintain the No. Sequence.
