Editing, reversing or deleting an entry
Menu Accounting3 min read
Select an entry in the journal, then use the toolbar's buttons or the right-click:
- Edit (or a double-click) reopens the entry: date, piece number, label, accounts, amounts, cost centers. Save closes the window.
- Duplicate opens a new entry filled in like the one you selected, with the next piece number.
- Reverse swaps the debit and the credit. It is immediate, with no confirmation: for a multiple entry, the common account changes side.
- Delete removes the entry, after confirmation.
These actions apply to the entries you entered. In a closed fiscal year, they are greyed out.
Entries from invoicing
Invoices, credit notes and payments arrive in the journal when you click Post in invoicing. Their piece number starts with gc-: gc-fac for an invoice, gc-nc for a credit note, gc-pmt for a payment, followed by the invoice's number.
An entry from invoicing cannot be deleted, duplicated or reversed. A mistake is corrected with Edit: only the date and the accounts change.
- The message"Entry posted from billing: only the date and the accounts can be corrected."
- The datecan be changed, within the fiscal year.
- The common accounthere the debtors account. An invoice with several revenue lines gives a multiple entry.
- The labelgreyed out, like the piece number, the type, the line descriptions, the amounts and the CCs: they stay as invoicing recorded them.
- The counterpartsthe invoice's revenue accounts.
GestiClub keeps a trace of the correction. An invoice one of whose entries has been corrected can no longer be removed from the journal with Reverse last posting (chapter 10: Posting invoicing to the accounts).
Opening and reversal entries
- An opening entry brings in a balance at the start of the fiscal year (see "The opening balance"). It cannot be edited, duplicated, reversed or deleted. To change an opening balance, go through Tools › Opening balance again.
- A reversal entry is the one GestiClub records, at the closing, for an entry marked Reverse in next fiscal year. Dated the first day of the next fiscal year and labelled "Reversal - " followed by the original label, it cannot be edited, duplicated, reversed or deleted.
When you try to edit one of these entries, GestiClub answers: "System entries cannot be edited."
