Reverse Invoice

If the visit type or service date was incorrectly recorded, reverse the patient's invoice.

Before you begin

Warning:

To reverse an invoice, you must first zero the value of the invoice amount. For more information about adjusting an invoice amount, see Adjust - Item or Amount.
You cannot undo a Did Not Wait or reverse invoice action.
The Did Not Wait process can only be performed once per invoice. You should reverse the whole invoice not just one line item.

About this task

Reverse an invoice in the Transaction History panel.

Procedure

To reverse an invoice:

From the Patient Search or Patient Queue, select a patient.
To view a patient's transaction history, click Transaction History in the floating navigation bar. You are redirected to the Transaction History panel.

Tip: To minimise the number of transactions on the screen, apply filters such as a date range, visit type, reference number, paid or unpaid.
Hover your mouse over the invoice item and click Menu.
From the list, select Did Not Wait.
A Confirm Did Not Wait confirmation prompt is displayed. To complete a reverse invoice, enter your credential details:
1. In the User Signoff section, enter your username and password.
2. In the Witness Signoff section, enter the witness user's username and password and use a domain account.
