Cancelling a Contract in FalconPro Real Estate Software
Cancelling a Draft Contract
If you have just renewed or created a contract by mistake and it is still in draft status (no receipts or financial transactions have been recorded):
-
Simply open the contract.
-
Click Delete.
-
Confirm the deletion when prompted.
-
The draft contract will be removed, and the previous (old) contract will revert to active status1.
Cancelling a Contract with Receipts
If receipts or payments have already been recorded against the contract:
-
Cancel Associated Receipts First
-
Go to the Receipts module.
-
Locate and cancel any receipts linked to the contract.
-
If a receipt has been posted to the General Voucher (GV), you must first unpost the GV before you can cancel the receipt.
-
When cancelling, you can choose to use today’s date or retain the original transaction date1.
-
-
Delete the Contract
-
After all related receipts are cancelled, return to the contract.
-
Click Delete to cancel the contract.
-
The system will prompt for confirmation; proceed to complete the cancellation.
-
The previous contract will automatically revert to active status1.
-
Cancelling a Terminated Contract or Reverting Status
If you have terminated a contract by mistake and need to revert it:
-
Contact FalconPro Support
-
Open the terminated contract.
-
Hold the Control key and double-click the contract to generate a one-time code.
-
Send this code to FalconPro support to receive a temporary password1.
-
-
Edit Contract Status
-
Enter the password provided by support.
-
In the edit window, change the contract status back to Draft.
-
Save the changes.
-
Once the contract is in draft and has no receipts, you can delete it, restoring the previous contract to active status1.
-
Best Practices for Contract Cancellation
-
Always cancel associated receipts before attempting to delete a contract with transactions.

If you terminate a contract by mistake, use the support-assisted password process to revert status.
