Amending Journal Lines

You can use Ledger Entry (LEN) to amend any of the details for a journal line before it is posted. You can amend the details while you are initially entering the journal. Or you can place the journal on hold and return to the journal and amend selected details at a later time.

If the journal you want to amend was placed on hold, or posted as provisional, you must first retrieve the journal by selecting View Held Journals or Recall Provisional option from the Action menu. You can also retrieve provisional transactions using Recall Provisional Journals (PRJ). See 'Recalling a Held Journal or Amending Provisional Transactions'.

Once a journal has been posted to the ledger, you can only amend some of the journal details. This is to ensure the integrity of the ledger is maintained. See 'Correcting Mistakes After Posting'.
