Frequently Asked Questions
Can I undo this change to the invoice?
Changes to finalised invoices may be limited. If the invoice has already been synced to your accounting system, you may need to create a credit note instead of editing the original invoice.
Can I restrict what an employee can access in Workshop Software?
Yes. Workshop Software allows you to set permissions for each user, controlling which areas of the system they can view or edit. Check the user settings for available permission options.
