Understanding Draft Voids and Deletions

If you enter a draft in error, you can delete or void it. When you delete or void a draft, the system reopens any invoices that the draft paid.

You can delete a draft only when:

  • The draft is not posted.

  • The draft is at a draft-acceptance status (4).

    Note: If the draft is at a remittance or collection status, you cannot delete it; you must post the draft and then void it.

When you delete a draft, the system removes the draft records from these tables:

  • Receipt Header (F03B13)

  • Receipt Detail (F03B14)

  • Customer Ledger (F03B11)

If the draft is posted, you must void the draft. When you void a draft, the system updates these fields on the draft record in the F03B13 table:

  • Receipt NSF/Void Code field (NFVD)

    The system updates this field to V.

  • Void Date (VDGJ)

    The system uses the GL date that you enter when you void the draft.

  • Void Reason Code (VRE)

    The system uses the reason code that you enter when you void the draft.

The system also creates a new batch, which you must post to create the reversing journal entries. You can void the draft at any stage of draft processing.
