How does it work in practice?

Use Case Examples
Example 1:
You attempt to print an invoice for a customer. The system notifies you that the document has been canceled. Thanks to the warning, you can verify which invoice is current and print the correct one.
Example 2:
You are preparing a set of invoices to be sent via email. When the system detects a canceled invoice on the list, you will receive a warning, allowing you to remove it from the batch.
