Voiding Invoices in Other Currencies

To void an invoice that is in a different currency from the default currency, follow the same procedure, and the resulting changes described in the What Happens After You Click Void (no workflow) section still apply.

In addition, the following points are important to remember:

The amount that was posted is the amount that is voided, regardless of the current exchange rate.

When you void and then re-post an invoice that is in a different currency than the default currency, the second posting uses the most current exchange rate, which may have changed since the first time the invoice was posted. Therefore, the posted amount may be different.
