To delete a submitted document, you need to cancel it first. Following are the steps to delete a submitted document.

These steps assume that you have the appropriate permissions on the document that you wish to cancel and delete.

Step 1: Cancel Submitted Document

You will find the ‘Cancel’ button on upper right corner of submitted document.

Step 2: Delete the Document

Upon cancellation of the submitted document, the ‘Amend’ button becomes visible, and the document status is set to ‘Cancelled’, indicating successful cancellation.

To delete the document, click on Menu, then select Delete. This action will remove the selected document.

Note: To delete multiple submitted documents simultaneously, you can select them in the list view, then proceed to cancel and delete.

If your document is linked with other documents, then you will need to cancel dependent document before trying to delete the parent document.

All deleted documents disappear from the respective DocType but can be seen in ‘Deleted Documents’. They can either be deleted permanently or restored.
