    Hi DM83,

     

    Thank you for your post.

     

    Typically, the error message you've encountered can arise from two scenarios. Firstly, it may occur if you've used an item multiple times on an order. In such cases, combining the amounts to have the item on a single line usually resolves this issue. The second scenario involves discounting an item by 100% on an order and attempting to convert it to a sale, resulting in a similar problem. To address this, you should convert the order to a sale and subsequently edit the sale to include the discount.

     

    Additionally, I've made some adjustments to your file that may assist in resolving the issue.

     

    If the error persists, please let me know, and I'd be happy to assist further.

    Thanks Princess,

     

    It all works now.

     

    I made sure my Invoices had none of those issues you described first.

     

    Since you have made the adjustments it is all good.

     

    Regards,


    Dom

        Today I have tried to create a new invoice and the same error is now appearing again.  Can you please weave your magic again?
