A Record Notes pop-up window will open. 

Below the reading type and date, click the checkbox next to "Mark the record as invalid" to make the reading invalid. You can add comments or additional information in the bottom section of the window. Click Submit.

An invalid entry will be marked by a strikethrough and the coloured background reflecting high / low risk or normal will be removed.
