Delete Submitted Document

ERPNext allows you to assign deletion permission exclusively to User. Only those users will be able to delete records. Click here to learn more about permissions.

To delete any document from system you should cancel all linked documents. For example if you need to delete Sales Order, but Delivery Note and Sales Invoice has already been created against that Sales Order. Then you should cancel and delete documents in reverse order, i.e. Sales Invoice, Delivery Note and then Sales Order. If payment entry was also made against Sales Invoice, then you should first Cancel and Delete that Journal Voucher, and then come to Sales Invoice.
