Submit sales invoice
Submits a draft sales invoice so it posts to the ledger.
POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/erpnext/sales-invoice/submit
write Confirm
Moves a draft Sales Invoice to submitted (docstatus 1). The invoice then affects the books and shows Unpaid until paid, or Overdue after its due date. A submitted invoice cannot be edited; to change it, cancel it with cancel_sales_invoice and create a new draft. The call returns ERPNext's error if a required field is empty. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| invoice string required | string | Sales Invoice ID from list_sales_invoices or create_sales_invoice. |
