Didn't work for me, still shows the same "can't delete" message when using the new "Force delete" button. I'm still on Odoo 11, been using it a couple of years and the amount of canceled invoices are getting annoying. I'm a solo part-time freelancer, so I don't really care if my canceled invoices are deleted or just hidden/filtered-out my list with valid invoices. The point being, I don't like seeing the chaos... Started using Odoo expecting it to be faster and easier than using excel sheets for my invoicing and administration, yet carving my invoices in stone as a neanderthal would've been more time-efficient given the amount of time I've wasted using Odoo and getting things to actually work. An administrator account should be able to do anything they want, without workarounds as shown in this video.

[@OdooMates]

sorry to say that, we realize the solution will work for odoo 13 and above versions

[@timmy7201]

@@OdooMates Thanks for the info, will try to update the Odoo I'm running on my server in the coming week. If you didn't notice, I'm a tech person and hate administrative tasks... :-)

[@timmy7201]

@@OdooMates ​ Well... Couple of hours later and I somehow got a filter working by default. All canceled invoices are automatically hidden from the list now... It weirdly enough required a server reboot to get applied... At least the OCD part of my brain will rest well tonight... It's 11:53 PM over here, so even 7 minutes left of my Sunday to enjoy... 😅

[@Mireda-wr3yc]

It's bad behaviour in accounting to delete posted entries, it's recommended to cancel it instead bro 😊

[@OdooMates]

Yes i agree, you are right. But there might be some case, where user needs to delete it, so just need to share the knowledge that there is such an option available. Also when i see the purchase count for such apps in the odoo app store, seems there are people who looks for the same. Thanks again brother

[@Mireda-wr3yc]

@@OdooMates yes it happens at starts, when client test in production 😅

[@OdooMates]

Anyway hope people will do this only when it really needs and thanks brother for sharing it ❤️

Can we add manually add invoice number for new invoice rather than next number

[@OdooMates]

Yes, was possible in old versions by making the field move_name visible in the form view of invoice

[@YuehliaKids]

Hello Brother, This doesn't work when selecting multiple records, is there anyway to make it work? I'm getting this error: "Record does not exist or has been deleted. (Record: account.move(478,), User: 2)" FYI: I'm made sure that the record exists and not deleted
