FAQ: Introduction to cancelling an invoice

This is simple to do on LocumDeck.

  • Go to your Invoices >> History
  • Open up the invoice details by using the slide down arrow at the end of your invoice’s row
  • Click Cancel invoice and follow the on screen help.

The process will vary slightly depending on

  • whether and how you sent the invoice or just saved it to your records
  • whether cancelling the invoice will involve breaking the sequence of your invoice numbers.

This is because, legally, invoices are significant documents – they represent your right to charge someone money. So there are two important accounting requirements that have been built into LocumDeck to keep your records in tip-top shape.

  • If an invoice has been sent, a credit note should be issued to offset the cancelled invoice in both your and the practice’s accounts.
  • Invoice numbering should be sequential.

"I am a huge fan of LocumDeck and the platform you’ve built is just fantastic. I used it a few years ago and returned to locuming again recently, and the platform has evolved into something even better. When I came back to locuming, I wasn’t sure how I'd find work, so I decided to turn on Instant Book and see what happened. Within 30 minutes, I was fully booked for the next month, I was delighted!"
