More Information
There may be instances where you may need to change some details of a Payment after it has been posted. Though the Payments are locked after posting there are certain fields that can be changed if required.
The ability to adjust transactions is limited to users with the "Adjust transactions" user permission set to 'Yes'. You can find out how to set user permissions here.
The changeable fields are as follows:
- "Date:"
- "Comment:"
- "Centre:"
- "Cleardown hold:"
- "Site:"
- "Analysis Code:"
- "Notes:"
- "Images:"
 | If any part of the month end procedure has been run for the period into which the Payments fall you will not be able to edit even these fields. |
Editing the Postings
Once you know the document number you need to edit :
- Go to " System\Accounts Sales Ledger\Purchase Ledger Customer/Supplier History".

- Press [Search] to list all transactions.
- Highlight the transaction you want to correct on the list.
- Press <Ctrl+F2> or [Edit] to make the adjustment.
- Make the required changes and click [Done] and [Accept].
