How to Edit & Regenerate an Invoice in Base: A Comprehensive Guide


Context:

Change is bound to happen, whether it's client feedback or a minor mistake. However, accurate and timely invoicing remains crucial. Base's flexible platform recognizes this and offers seamless solutions to modify and regenerate invoices.


Streamlining Invoice Modifications:

1. Why Editing Matters:

Sometimes, the details change after creating an invoice. Whether it's an updated client requirement or fixing a mistake, the ability to adjust an invoice is crucial for clarity and building trust.

2. Base’s Solution to Invoice Adjustments:

With Base, mistakes are not permanent. The platform provides a simple way to regenerate an invoice, instantly replacing the initial document with updated information, without any hassle.

3. Role-Based Permissions:

Not everyone can alter an invoice – and that's intentional. To safeguard against inadvertent changes and maintain data integrity, permissions play a pivotal role:

  • You'd typically require Jobs > Invoice > Admin permissions to edit and regenerate an invoice.

  • Understand that once an invoice is approved or submitted, there are additional layers of permissions and constraints. It's designed to ensure that only authorized individuals with the right permissions can make such modifications.

4. Stepwise Guide to Edit & Regenerate an Invoice:

  • Go to the Job Details page.
