Reprinting old TimeSlips

Question

I created an invoice, but never sent it to LEDS format and I cleared the invoice from the billing stages. When I go to the "SLIPS" tab I can see the timeslips entered, but when I go to recreate the invoice the timeslips will not show up and only a "prior balance" shows on the invoice. How do I get timeslips from the prior invoice to show on a new generated invoice.

Okay, well, let's slow down a bit, because you are sort of "digging a bigger hole." 
 Let's get back to the objective. Do you JUST need the LEDES file output? Because most folks who do LEDES do not send a paper/PDF bill, but some do and I need to know if you need to do that. 
 If you don't, and you just need to submit a LEDES file, then I would put the write off into Timeslips to relieve the previous balance and run the bill with it. 
 Payments, Credits and Write offs do not export as part of the LEDES file, so it will have no impact on the content of your file that you submit to the audit house. They are invisible to the LEDES file. 
 Also, if you would like a guide to doing LEDES bills, some of my colleagues and I have written a little manual on how to do that in Timeslips. You can buy it here: http://www.certifiedresourcesnetwork.com/ 
 Hope that helps.

Unfortunately you can only undo the last bill for a matter. the only way to do what you are asking would be to export the slips and import into a dummy matter, then generate a bill.

Do you have a backup from before the approval? Might be able to restore that on the side and rerun the LEDES bill from that. 
 (For the following options, I would restore a copy of your database in a "sandbox" location where we can do whatever we want with it and not disturb your working database....) 
 Otherwise to me it depends how many slips are involved. If it is like over 50, then I might do an export/import in a sandbox database and then export the LEDES file. Mainly because it is faster than duplicating. 
 But if it is just a few, then I would duplicate them in a copy of the database, run the LEDES bill out of that and then just switch back to the live database. 
 The thing is the invoice is showing in the current database as owing, we just need the LEDES file to submit, so no permanent changes need to be made to the current database.

You should never deleted billed slips, it won't change the balance. What I suggest is doing a write-off on the matter balance. 
 If you have a backup from before you deleted the billed slips, I would restore and redo the steps you did. If you are not going to do that, please run a database verification with only look for errors checked. If there are errors they should be fixed as soon as possible.
