# Accepting Receiving Invoices

**ACCEPTING RECEIVING INVOICES**

Barnet includes a security feature that allows you to **lock Receiving Invoices from further edits**. Once an invoice has been entered and balanced, it is **best practice to mark it as ‘*****Accepted*****’**. This ensures no additional changes can be made without proper authorization.

**Key Points:**

* **Accepted invoices cannot be edited or deleted.**
* **A user permission controls who can UnAccept invoices.**
* **For stores using both the Portal and POS Manager (desktop version):**\
  Accepted status does **not sync** between the two platforms. If you use both, you must **Accept the invoice separately** in each system.

**How to Accept an Invoice:**

1. Locate the ‘**Accepted’** slider on the invoice.
2. Click the slider.

3. The slider will turn **green**, and an **Accepted** flag will appear next to the **Received** flag.

* The **Edit** window is locked.
* The **Delete** button is disabled.

**How to UnAccept:**

Staff with the proper **UnAccept permission** (usually senior managers) can toggle the slider off to allow further edits.
