howto modify account Entry Lines

Asked by Yvan Reichenbach

How can I correct accounting errors?.
For example an entry for "Truck service and repairs" has been recorder in the account "Motor Expense" and should be in the child account under "Motor Expense" / "Repairs & Maintenance"
The invoice has been reconciled and I cannot edit the account entry line to reflect the correct account.

Thanks
Yvan

Hello Yvan Reichenbach ,

You need to unreconcile the related entry from account move line form.
Just open the particular account move line and call the unreconcile wizard.

Hope this will help you.

Thanks.

Hi Vra,
I tried but I get the following error:
"You can not do this modification on a confirmed entry ! Please note that you can just change some non important fields !"

Regards,
Yvan

Hello Yvan Reichenbach ,

There is one field in account move line form : reconcile_id (many2one), Just right click on that field select the 'Action' option and it will call unreconciled wizard.

Thanks.

Hi Vra.

The reconcile_id field is blank and read only.
The invoice was reconciled using "Entries Encoding / Entries by Statements".
the line I want to modify is not the bank account transaction that reconciled the invoice.
I want to modify the expense account (Internal Type: Others) that was recorded on the invoice line.

I do not want to unreconcile the entry. All I want to do is to change the account_id of that line to a different account_id.

Regards,
Yvan

Hello Yvan Reichenbach ,

You are not allowed to change anything in posted account move. So thats why i did tell you for unreconciled the related accounting entries.This is only way available to change the accounting entries (related accounting move entries from account invoice move_id field.) which is reconciled.

Thanks.
