What this guide helps you do
Withdraw an open note through the permission-protected status action. This guide follows the supplied Delivery Note module’s live hooks, controller actions, model rules, views and stored side effects.
Follow these steps
- Go to and verify the note is unsigned.
- Obtain approval to withdraw it.
- Invoke the supported void controller action from an authorised interface or controlled request.
- Verify the success message and return to the register.
- Check status Void and the `void` event.
- Create a replacement from the invoice only when required.
Fields and options
- Note ID
- Delete capability
- Existing status must not be signed
Rules and limits
- The controller uses Delete permission for voiding.
- The model returns false for a signed note.
- Void updates status and updated_at; it does not delete the row.
- The supplied admin detail template does not render a visible Void button.
Check it worked
- The note remains auditable but no longer acts as the invoice’s active public delivery note.
Safety checks and troubleshooting
- Do not add an undocumented hard-delete action or tell users to look for a button the supplied view does not contain.
Stay within the supported flowDo not force database values, expose secure tokens, bypass permission checks, replace a stored signature or invent a status or interface that the supplied code does not implement.
