Correcting Posted Transactions (incl A/P)

Post by Bill »

Infrequently, we issue a check and assign transaction to wrong expense account. We know to begin the correction in A/P module by voiding the check. Our Auditor wants
us to NOT re-use that check number; however, check has already been cashed. Is there another way
to make this correction?

You shouldn't have to void the check to correct this error.

The vendor record doesn't record the expense account information (I don't think).

It's strictly a Fund Accounting correction
CR wrong expense account
DB right expense account

and it's done.

A quick check of V11 shows a notation of the expense account (by description, not number) on the Vendor Activity Summary report.

Eden, this is true, but that's only a note, if you do the changes in FA that will correct the accounts. If you need to track the change in A/P you can add a note to the vendor record to account for the change.
