Reverse Journal Entry

Digita Accounts Production Advanced enables you to reverse a particular entry recorded in a journal. This creates a second, reversed, entry in the same journal.

Reverse a journal entry manually, as follows:

  1. Open the entity and select the Journals tab.
  2. Open the journal with the entry to be reversed.
  3. Highlight the entry to be reversed.

    You can reverse multiple entries, as follows:
    Collection: Hold the CTRL key down and click on the grey column on the left of the each row.
    Range: Hold the SHIFT key down and click on the grey column on the left of the start and end of a range.

  4. Click the Copy button or right-click and select the Copy option or select Ctrl + C.
  5. Right-click and select Paste | Paste Reversed or select Ctrl + R.
  6. A reversed entry appears in the list.

You can undo this reversal by deleting the reversed entry.

Alternatively, you can reverse a journal entry in the next period as follows:

  1. Create a Journal entry in the Current Period and with the Journal dialog open, tick the Reverse next period control.
  2. Create the next period and from the main menu select Journals | Reverse Journals from Prior Period to open the Reverse Journals from Prior Period dialog.
  3. This dialog shows all Journals where the Reverse next period control has been ticked in the prior period. The items are all ticked Reverse by default. Un-tick any that you do not want to be reversed and click OK to reverse the selected entries.
