Hi. How can we help?

Editing sales with services

After creating a service sale with partial payment/no payment, you can edit the sale.

Sales with services that have been paid in full cannot be edited. These must be voided and recreated. For instructions on voiding sales, refer to our Voiding sales using the sales history article.

Editing a service sale

You can fully edit partial payment/no payment sales with services where the balance has been placed on layaway, including adding/removing items and adjusting pricing, quantities, and discounts.

Partial payment/no payment sales with services where the balance was placed On account or saved as unfulfilled can only add products to the sale. Previously existing products will be locked from editing.

To edit an existing service sale:

  1. Navigate to Services.
  2. Click on the service to expand.

    Service page with individual service selected to show expanded view.
