Copying a recurring journal entry

You can create a recurring journal entry similar to an existing one by copying the existing entry and then making changes. If you have a recurring journal entry that happens twice in the same period, you can create a single recurring journal entry, and then copy it and assign a different posting day to the copy. Copying also provides an easy way to create a reversing recurring journal entry. This procedure describes the process for copying a recurring journal entry.
