Archive old invoices and bills, keep every number for reporting

One-click and bulk archive/unarchive for customer invoices, vendor bills, credit and debit notes, and payments — hidden from daily lists, always reversible, and never missing from your financial reports.

The problem

Accounting teams accumulate thousands of invoices, bills, credit notes and payments over time. Old and settled documents clutter the lists bookkeepers work in every day, slowing down search and increasing the risk of acting on the wrong record — but financial documents cannot simply be deleted, so there has been no clean way to tuck them out of sight while keeping them fully recoverable.

The solution

Invoice, Bill & Payment Archive adds native, reversible archiving to every accounting document type. Archive a single record or hundreds at once, and it disappears from the active list — but stays exactly where it belongs in every financial report, ready to be restored in one click by any billing user.

Capabilities

Everything you need to declutter safely

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

One-Click Archive

Archive or restore any customer invoice, vendor bill, credit note, debit note or payment directly from its detail view.

02

Bulk Archive & Unarchive

Multi-select any list and archive or restore dozens of records in a single action — built for real accounting volumes.

03

All Five Document Types

One consistent workflow across customer invoices, vendor bills, credit notes, debit notes and payments.

04

Dedicated Archived Menu

A dedicated Archived menu with a per-type list for invoices, bills, credit/debit notes and payments, so archived records stay browsable and searchable.

05

Show/Hide Archived Filter

A standard Archived filter in every invoice, bill and payment search view flips between active-only and archived views in one click.

06

Visual Archived Indicator

Archived rows are muted in every list and an Archived ribbon appears on the form, so no one ever acts on the wrong record.

07

Reporting-Safe by Design

Archiving only hides a record from operational lists. Every archived document still appears in the General Ledger, aged balances, tax reports and analytics.

08

Self-Service Reversal

Any user with Billing access can unarchive a record in one click — no administrator involvement required.

09

Uniform Visibility

Archiving hides a record from everyone's active lists equally; nothing is ever deleted, and every document stays retrievable from the Archived menu.
