# View Data and Invoice Actions
Sales and purchase data successfully imported will appear in the "View" section of the Data Import module. From there user can view and take actions on the invoices.
Data can be filtered based on the business units, the return periods (both yearly or monthly) and the invoice type.
## Invoice Actions

2. Changes can be made in the invoice details like Invoice number, date, place of supply, etc and line item-wise details like HSN and item descriptions, Quantity, etc.
### B. Invoice Delete
If the user wants to delete unwanted invoices then that can be done in 2 ways:
1. **Selecting Invoices:** Invoices can be selected individually by clicking on the check box on the left and then proceed to click on the "Delete" button.
Invoices can also be deleted individually, by taking the action from the "Action" column as well.
2. **Delete All:** This button deletes the complete data of that month in one click.
### C. Invoice Lock/Unlock
