Correcting accruals

Some Of the nominals and ledgers used in this topic may be different to those in your chart of accounts.

You can correct an accrual by editing the accrual document.

Scenario: An accrual (document ASAC1) has been created in period 05 of 2020/21, which has incorrectly been reversed into the same year and period (document ASAC2). The reversal document needs to be corrected so that it reverses in period 06 of 2020/21.

1. Go to Enquiries > Detail Enquiry from the menu.
2. Select Equals from Document Type, then select ... in Value 1.
3. Double-select to select ASAC - Accrued Income / Expense (where AS represents the location code for the document type) from Select a document type.
4. Select Equals from Document Number, then enter the document number in Value 1.
   
5. Select the Periods tab. Select Period Range, select All from the drop-down list, then select OK.
   
6. Document Enquiry displays. Select EDIT.
   
7. The PSFJournal document input form displays with the details of the original document. Select Period, then change the value to required period e.g. 06. In the following example, the period has been changed from 05 to 06.
   
8. When you have made the required changes, press F5 or select POST to post the correction.
