Finding, changing, deleting and reversing General Journal entries

Accounts > Working with General Journal Entries >>

After you record a General Journal entry, you'll probably want to view the transaction again in the future, and there may be times when you need to change, delete and reverse a transaction you've entered into the AccountEdge system.

If your company file is changeable (that is, if you haven't marked "Transactions CAN'T be changed; They must be reversed" in the Security view of the Preferences window), you can edit and delete transactions. When this is the case, you can quickly change and remove the transaction from your records.

If your company file is unchangeable (that is, if you have marked the selection, Transactions CAN'T be changed; They must be reversed" in the Security view of the Preferences window), you can only reverse transactions. When this is the case, you can quickly remove the effects of the transaction from your records by reversing the transaction. Then, if you want, you can enter a new, correct transaction to replace the transaction you reversed.
