If a Journal Entry was posted to the wrong period follow the steps below to reverse:
- Go into the original entry and click the Reverse button
- The debits in the original entry will now be credits
- The credits in the original entry will now be debits
- Click save
- This will create a reversing entry
- The net affect of the original entry and the reversing entry is now .00
To fix the original entry without having to key in the entire entry follow these steps:
- Go into the reversing entry and click the Reverse button
- The debits in the reversing entry will now be credits. Like the original entry created
- The credits in the reversing entry will now be debits. Like the original entry created
- Change the Year/Period to the desired posting period
- Click Save
The entry is now posted to the correct period
Note: Only Journal Entries made within the Journal Entry module or Import Journal Entry can be fixed this way. If the entry was created from another Enterprise module the reversing entry must be made through the subsidiary module
