Hi all,
To help trainee bookkeepers, I always keep a current backup / training copy
of my books. They prepare the invoice or posting in the test copy and when
the senior validates it as correct, they copy it over to production.
If you don't want to work that way: simply revoke their right to post the
invoices. Seniors can verify before posting the invoice without causing the
extra confusing postings.
I really believe there's a process or social issue behind this and as Chris
said, deleting poses issues for which there is no acceptable answer from a
finance perspective.
Also: an invoice is a claim on someone's assets. If you cancel that claim,
you should keep records that you did.
Concluding: I'm not at all on favor of supporting deletion. If voided
invoices need comments to make the books understandable, there's the option
to add internal notes.
My 2c.
Bye,
Erik.
