CHECKS CHANGE OFFSET ACCOUNT

Contents

    To change the offset account number (expense category) on a check that has been entered:

    After a Check has been OK’d, you can hold down the Command (Control) key and double click on the Expense line. This will open a window that allows you to change the account number on the transaction. Account Balances are updated.

    This option is available only for User level A or higher.
    You can not do this if the transaction is posted in a closed period.

    If the transaction has already been posted to the Account Balance Summary file you will get a message that the summary file will need resetting.
    Go to Menus > Maintenance > Programmer’s > PROG > Reset GL Account Summaries. This may take a while, and can be done at a later time before running summary financial statements.
