What if I sent a quote or invoice to the wrong person?

If you accidentally send a quote or invoice to the wrong recipient, take action immediately to secure your document and ensure it reaches the correct person.

Step 1: Revoke link access immediately

Revoking access instantly locks the web permalink for the wrong recipient, preventing them from viewing or verifying the document—even if they open the original link.

  1. Go to Invoices or Quotes and select the document.
  2. Scroll to the Share link card on the preview page.
  3. Click Revoke access.

Verification: Confirm that the Share link card displays a revoked status, indicating external access is completely locked.

Step 2: Correct the recipient details

How you fix the recipient depends on whether you entered the wrong contact information for the customer, or assigned the wrong customer account entirely:

Option A: You entered incorrect details for the right customer

  1. Navigate to Customers and select the customer profile.
  2. Update their Email Address or Phone Number.
  3. Save your changes.

Option B: You selected the wrong customer entirely

Because sent quotes and invoices lock key fields and cannot be assigned to a different customer directly, you must replace the document:

  1. Click the ... (More Options) menu on the specific quote or invoice and select Void.
  2. Click the ... menu again and select Duplicate.
  3. In the new draft builder, select the correct customer under Bill To.
  4. Save and issue the new quote or invoice.

Verification: Check the customer profile or the new draft document to verify the correct customer name, email address, or phone number.

Step 3: Deliver the document to the correct person

Once access to the original link is revoked and recipient details are corrected, deliver the document to the intended recipient:

  • If you updated contact details (Option A): Return to the original document preview page, click Restore access, and select Send to dispatch a new magic link via email or SMS.
  • If you duplicated and reissued (Option B): Send the newly created quote or invoice directly from the builder or preview page.

Important security notes

  • Sent quotes and invoices are locked: Once sent, core details are permanently locked. Voiding and duplicating is the official way to reissue an invoice to a completely different customer.
  • Magic link expiration: Magic links require user verification and automatically expire after 15 minutes, providing an added layer of security even if a link was delivered to an unintended email address.
