Modifying data in Accounts Payable?

Post by lmschuelke »

Is there a way to modify information in the Accounts Payable module? I had to reverse a transaction and then issued it again through a manual check repeating entry because it was quite a complicated transaction. But now AP shows two entries instead of just one. Is there a way to fix this, or a better way to rectify an error in the future?
Thanks

You do not want to alter the information in Accounts Payable because then you lose the audit trail. If something is posted incorrectly in Accounts Payable, the best way to correct this is to reverse the entry, post the reversal, reinput the entry correctly, and then post the reentry. That way there is a complete audit trail.
