The e-way bill once generated cannot be edited or modified. Only Part-B can be updated. However, if e-way bill is generated with wrong information, it can be cancelled and generated afresh. The cancellation is required to be done within twenty four hours from the time of generation.

You can ask the consignee/recipient to reject the e - way bill at his end in the common portal within 72 hours of its generation.
However, if the time period for rejection of 72 hours also lapses then no mechanism is provided in the e way bill rules. Hence, it is very important that all e-way bills that are not supported by proper movement of goods or are invalid or wrongly generated must be immediately cancelled.

In your case you case take sales return entry and raise a fresh invoice with correct details.
If you are using Tally ERP 9 you can automate the process of Sales Invoice Numbering so that you do not have to make manual entries at the time of each invoice generation saving time, becoming error free from these painful errors.
