# What does "Rebuild" do? Why won't my settlements update?

How Rebuild (formerly Reprocess) updates a settlement after you change settings or mappings, and why unsent settlements keep old numbers until you rebuild.

After you change **Settings > Invoice**, **Settings > Inventory**, or your **Accounts and taxes** mappings, a settlement that is not sent yet keeps its old numbers until you rebuild it. Rebuild reads the settlement again and uses your current mappings and settings.

## Rebuild one settlement

1.  Open the settlement.
    
2.  Select **More actions**, then **Rebuild from Amazon report**. (For payouts the item is **Rebuild from {channel} data**, for example **Rebuild from Shopify data**. TikTok Shop payouts cannot be rebuilt.)

3.  Confirm **Rebuild this settlement?**. This can take a few minutes.
    

## Rebuild many settlements

1.  On **Settlements** (or **Payouts**), select the rows you want to update.
    
2.  In the bar at the bottom, select **More actions**.
    
3.  Under **Manage settlements**, select **Rebuild settlements**. For payouts, select **Rebuild payouts**.

4.  You can also use the **⋯** menu on one row and select **Rebuild**.
    

## Rebuild after you save mappings

If you open **Accounts and taxes** from a settlement or payout (for example with **Map 1 type**) and save, Taxomate offers the rebuild for you. The message says **Saved. 3 unsent settlements used the old mappings.** Select **Rebuild 3 and go back**. Sent settlements do not change, and your line edits are kept. For payouts the message says "payouts".

## Rebuild is not available after a send

Once any part of a settlement is sent to your accounting software, Rebuild is off. The page says **Delete the entries first**. To change a sent settlement:

1.  Delete its entries (see "How do I delete a sales invoice or journal entry after sending?").
    
2.  Select **Rebuild**.
    
3.  Send the settlement again.
