Recommended workflow

• If the entries didn't originate in General Ledger, make corrections in the Application of Origin
• If the entries did originate in General Ledger, record journal entries to correct the transaction
  1. Record a reversing journal entry with the "incorrect" information.
  2. Record a journal entry with the "correct" information.

Alternate workflow

While you can use Change Entries to edit General Ledger entries, we don't recommend using this workflow.

The Change Entries task allows you to edit your transactions directly and without posting. It doesn't retain an audit trail of transactions and can cause issues with reporting.

An error made in the Change Entries task can require you to restore from backup.
