Re-exporting an Invoice Follow

How to re-export an invoice you already exported

Have you ever imported an invoice into your accounting system and then realized there were several errors that needed to be corrected?  Do you need to re-do an export file as you mistakenly deleted it before performing the import?  Luckily, Midnight allows you to re-export invoice files as needed (which you can then re-import or use for other purposes).

To access the invoice export screen, go to Orders.  Using the Quick Links option in the top-right hand corner and select Accounting Export.

The invoice export screen is designed to display only orders that have not yet been exported.  There is checkbox for the option of “Include Exported”.  Enabling this will update the results to include invoices that have already been exported.  You can use the option along with any of the other search criteria, including a single invoice number, an exported date range or any of the other filters that will aid you in locating the invoice you wish to re-export. 

To locate the desired invoice, click "Include Exported" and then click Apply along with the other relevant search criteria.

Once you perform the search, you may then select the files you wish to export and then proceed with the export process as normal!  (You can then use the file or import it into your accounting system as desired.)  The next time you access the screen, the system will default back to only showing invoices that have not yet been exported.

If you intend to re-import a file, you may wish to delete the already imported record from your accounting system before re-importing.  Each accounting system is different, but being able to re-export files for import allow you to make sure both systems stay in alignment and in balance.
