# Manage self-billed invoices

## Edit Self-Billed invoices

You can edit a self-billed invoice directly from the **Bills** view page. Navigate to **...More > Bills** and open the record you wish to edit.

If the self-billed invoice is already issued, you need to change its status back to "***Draft***" before taking any action.

If there are payments received associated with it, they need to be removed from the document. ![Edit a self-billed invoice ](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Edit%20a%20self-billed%20invoice%20%282%29.png)

At the top right of the Self-billed invoice overview page, click **Edit** to start. Elorus will ask you to confirm the status change. ![Screenshot_73](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Screenshot_7%283%29.png)

## Delete Self-billed invoices

You may delete self-billed invoices in bulk or separately.

If a self-billed invoice is already issued, you need to change its status back to "Draft" prior to deletion. In order to prevent accidental data loss, Elorus will only allow you to delete documents which are in a ''Draft'' state.

If there are payments received associated with it, they need to be removed or deleted.

To change status, **open** the self-billed invoice you wish to delete and click **Edit** .

### Delete a single self-billed invoice

Once you go back to editing you may click the **Delete** button, located at the bottom of the *Draft* document page, and the invoice will be permanently deleted. ![delete a single self-billed invoice-button](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Screenshot_8%283%29.png)

### Bulk deletion

From the list of Self-billed invoices within *Bills* menu you can select one or more *Draft* records you wish to delete. To proceed, click "**Actions > Delete selected**" ![self-billed invoices-actions-delete selected](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Screenshot_9%282%29.png)

          Note

          

If a document **isn't** in **draft** status, **no records** will be **deleted**.

          Important

          

Before **permanently** deleting an invoice, make sure that this action **does not violate** the **serial numbering sequence** rules. You run the risk of creating "gaps" in your numbering that you may not be able to fix afterwards.

## Void self-billed invoices

- A self-billed invoice must be ***Issued*** before it can be **Void**.
- There should be **no payments (received) associated** with it.

If the requirements are met, click the (**...**) and **Void**. ![void a self-billed invoice](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/void%20a%20self-billed%20invoice%20%281%29.png)

Once you click **Void** a popup window will be displayed, as shown in the image below: ![void a self-billed invoice-popup](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Screenshot_11%281%29.png)

Hit "**Yes, I'm sure**" to proceed and Elorus will void the self-billed invoice immediately.

Please keep in mind that by voiding the invoice:

- You will **not be able to send** the void invoice to your supplier via **email**.
- The **number cannot be used again** and numbering will continue. For example, if the self-billed invoice you voided was number 12, the next one you'll add will get the number 13.
- It remains in the system for future reference, but it is not included  in Elorus [Reports](/int/docs/about-reports), or in [Suppliers statements](/int/docs/client-supplier-statement).
- "Void" indication appears on the document when you view it and when you print it as well.  

![Void indication on a self-billed invoice-example](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Void%20black%20%281%29.png)

          Deletion of Void self-billed invoices

          

To ensure your sequential numbering remains intact, you **cannot delete** a Void invoice. You can, however, turn it back to *Issued* from its overview page by clicking **... > Mark as issued** and then proceed to **Edit > Set back to Draft > Delete**.

## Bulk Actions

In addition to deleting self-billed invoices, there are many other actions you can perform in bulk. Go to **Bills** menu to find the options described below. ![Screenshot_131](https://cdn.document360.io/9493d4a2-f3a8-4344-ad47-a4f5aeb61ce6/Images/Documentation/Screenshot_13%281%29.png)

### Copy selected self-billed invoices

Mark the invoices you'd like to copy and then click **Actions > Copy selected**. Elorus will create *Draft* copies of the Self-billed invoices you selected. If you wish to make changes on the copied invoices (client, values, taxes etc) you can simply open the draft document and hit **Edit**.

### Email selected self-billed invoices

You may **send via email** self-billed invoices to your suppliers, in bulk or individually. To send in bulk, Self-billed invoices need to be *Ιssued*. For more details check our guide [here](/int/docs/sending-self-billed-invoices-via-email).

### Export pdf/attachments to zip file

From the **Bills list page** you can select one or more Self-billed invoices and then click **Actions > Export pdf / attachments to zip file**. Elorus will send you an email; click the link on the email and download the invoices, as well as the files attached to them.
