Why does Fishbowl say "Cannot remove receipt item, please post to"?

You can't remove an item from a receipt once it's been received into inventory. The system typically requires the receipt to be posted or finalized before individual items can be modified or deleted.

What it means

Fishbowl prevents deletion of line items on receipts that have been processed into inventory. The message indicates the receipt requires posting (usually to accounting or a final status) before you can modify individual items.

What to check

Check the receipt’s status—is it marked as received, posted, or in some intermediate state?
Verify whether the inventory from this receipt has already been committed to stock.
Look for whether the entire receipt needs to be posted to complete the transaction.
If you need to undo this item, you may need to reverse or reactivate the receipt itself rather than delete individual lines.
