Edit A Processed Invoice Using The Copy Button

This article explains how to edit a processed invoice by copying it in Workshop Software. This creates a new invoice with a different invoice number, allowing you to make changes while preserving the original record.

This feature is available for Gold and Silver customers only.

Please note: Copying a processed invoice will create a new invoice with a different invoice number. You will then need to void the original invoice.

Step 1: Copy the Processed Invoice

  1. Open the processed invoice you want to edit.
  2. Click on the Star button on the right-hand side of the invoice, then click Copy Invoice.
