Delete and Void Bills

Have more questions? Submit a request

Bills in draft or pending approval can be deleted. Bills that have been approved and bills that have full or partial payments applied can only be voided. If you need to edit a paid bill, you will need to delete the payment first.

Note: When bills are deleted or voided, activities will go back to an unbilled state and can be billed again.

Delete bills

Bills can be deleted one at a time or in bulk and can only be deleted if they are in draft or pending approval. When you delete a bill, the deleted bill can be found in the Archive section of the main Billing tab.

Void bills

Unpaid bills without any payments and paid bills with full or partial payments can only be voided. If a bill has a full or partial payment, you will need to delete the payment before being able to void the bill. Once voided, the bill cannot be unvoided. When you void a bill, the voided bill can be found in the Archive section of the main Billing tab. Activities on the voided bill will return to an unbilled state and can be billed again. 

Important: You cannot delete a payment for a trust request. Learn more about trust requests in this article.
