Editing an Supplier invoice

Hi, I'm new to Sage 50 and I've run into a small problem. My manager gave me an invoice from a supplier to enter into Sage but I didn't notice that it was a Proforma Invoice and I entered it as I would an invoice and dated in for February. However yesterday I received an email from the supplier with the invoice attached and that's when I realised my error and I compared the two, the proforma invoice is dated in February and the proper invoice is dated in March. How can I change the details on the information I posted to reflect the proper invoice without having to delete the invoice and start again?? I'm assuming I can't leave the proforma invoice on the system and not enter the proper invoice as I don't want to upset the auditors later.

I would greatly appreciate any help with this! Thanks in advance!

You can either correct the entry, reverse it and repost, which you do depends on if the transaction has been reconciled on the VAT return and your preference.

I would alter it via...

File>Maintenance>Corrections.

Thanks! We actually don't deal with VAT that way, we just enter the invoice total, we don't put in any VAT figures separately.

If I File>Maintenance>Corrections, will it let me adjust the invoice date and reference number?

I appreciate the help!
