Invoice should not be deleted

Hi,

By Law in my country, invoices should not be deleted. They should only be cancelled/void, and this should always be reflected on the transactions list.

Is this possible to archive with manager.io?

Issue a credit note. See Use credit notes for customer returns and refunds | Manager. This does not archive the sales invoice, but reverses all amounts owed and inventory movements.

Yes, the way I do it is by changing all prices in lines to ZERO. This way invoice will be voided without issuing credit notes.

Depending on local laws, modifying a sales invoice with zero-value lines might not be legal. If the law requires keeping a record of the invoice, changing it would not qualify. In my opinion, that is no different than deleting it.

The idea is to have a button that does not DELETE but voids it or creates a reverse movement on the system.

i.e.,
If the invoice is $200 if i click cancel it should keep the invoice and create a cancelation document of -$200 USD.

The best option to reverse invoices is what @Tut mentioned.

That is exactly what a credit note accomplishes.

But is there a way to disable the delete button?

No. But you can Undo a Delete in the History file.

If you use the cloud or server edition, you can prevent users from deleting transactions and documents. Check this guide out https://www.manager.io/guides/9162
