# How do I edit an invoice after it was issued?

> What you can change on an invoice before and after the patient pays, and how.

**Short answer:** open the invoice and click **Edit Invoice**; once the invoice has payments, change its treatments with **Add Operations**, **Remove from Invoice** or **Edit Discount** on the invoice page instead.

**1. Open the invoice**

From **Finances → Invoices**, or the patient's **Invoices** tab.

**2. No payments yet: click Edit Invoice**

You can change everything: treatments, prices, discount, tax, insurance and required to pay. Click **Update**.

**3. Already paid: details only**

In **Edit Invoice** you can still change the assigned users, date, ID, details, pre-authorization, branch and doctor. Click **Update**.

**4. Already paid: change the treatments**

On the invoice page, use **Add Operations**, **Remove from Invoice** or **Edit Discount**. If the new total is less than what was paid, you choose to refund the difference or keep it as the patient's balance.

> [!TIP]
>
> To change prices on an invoice that has payments, delete (or refund) the payments first, then edit the invoice.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Adding or removing treatments on an invoice needs the **Edit Invoiced Operations** permission and **Invoices → Edit**. Every change is recorded in the invoice's **User Actions** tab.
