Fixing errors on a recorded journal entry


Begin by displaying the transaction in the Record Journal Entry window. You can do this by locating the transaction in the Transaction Journal window and double-clicking it.

The next steps you need to follow depend upon whether your transactions are changeable or unchangeable. (Choosing changeable or unchangeable transactions) If your transactions are changeable, simply make whatever changes are needed, then click Record.

If your transactions are unchangeable, choose Reverse Nominal Journal Transaction from the Edit menu. A transaction that undoes the effects of the original, incorrect transaction is displayed. Review it, make any necessary changes - you can change the Nominal Journal number, date and memo if you like. (Although you can mark the VAT Inclusive option, doing so will have no effect on the reversed transaction.) Click the Record Reversal button, then reenter the transaction with the necessary changes.
