TRANSITION_NOT_SUPPORTED

When it happens

The target status cannot be reached from the invoice's current status. For example, a DRAFT or SCHEDULED invoice cannot be voided, because it has never been issued.

How to fix it

Fetch the invoice and check its status. Delete a draft instead of voiding it.

Retry

Do not retry. The outcome is final: sending the same request again gets the same answer.
