When I wrote a manual check for salary, I used the wrong acct #. I debited the alimony acct instead of the salary account. Can I do a journal entry to change it? And how would I do that? I am not using the payroll module. When running the budget report the $$ shows up in the alimony acct. Since it was the first ck of '08 for salary it was easy to spot. I am entering in all transactions from 1/'08 through now. I am a new user.

If you wanted to correct this with a journal entry, rather than reversing the original check and re-entering it, you would simply credit the alimony account and debit the salary account.

Thanks!

That's what I'll do. I was hoping I could do that instead of VOID/reissue the check. I appreciate the fast response.
