Editing existing valuations
Editing a Valuation
Open any valuation from the list and click Edit. The same five-step wizard reopens with the saved values.
What's editable
Everything except the reference number (assigned at create time and printed on the certificate). If you need to invalidate a reference, mark the valuation Cancelled and create a new one.
Versioning and certificates
If the certificate has already been generated:
- Editing fields that appear on the certificate puts the certificate in regenerate state
- The next time the customer opens the share link, they get the updated PDF
- The old PDF stays in Cloudinary for audit purposes — it isn't deleted
Audit log
Every edit is logged with user, timestamp and the field that changed. View the full history from Activity or by clicking the History tab on a valuation.
Optimistic locking
If two staff edit the same valuation at once, the second save returns a 409 conflict and prompts you to refresh. This prevents silent overwrites.
