Deleting or voiding cheques from a previous year

No, you can't delete or void cheques that you did not write during your current financial year. You can, however, adjust your records to allocate the associated amounts to the correct accounts. Here's how:

1. Use the Reconcile Accounts window to mark as cleared any cheques from a previous year that you want to delete or void.



2. Make a Nominal Journal entry to debit your bank account for the total amount of the cheques you just marked as cleared.



3. Make another Nominal Journal entry to credit your retained earnings account for the same amount.



4. Mark the journal entries when you next reconcile your bank account.
