I am working as a bookkeeper and am learning Sage Software. Can anyone help me with the following:
I have set up a customer on Sage and there are numerous invoices on that customers account for different people. I have posted one of these invoices as paid but used the wrong date (this has now become apparent during my bank reconciliation). I cannot go into file maintenance and amend as it has been VAT reconciled. Can anyone tell me how to go about amending the posting date of the invoice
Rename an unused bank account to "Adjustment Account"
As I understand it, you have a receipt in the bank with the wrong date.
Do a bank transfer using this wrong date from the bank to the adjustments account. (to take it out)
Then, do a bank transfer from the adjustment account, to the bank account, using the right date (to put it back in again at the correct date)
The transfer will be T9 so wont affect the VAT return. Just make a little detail on the posting to note that you are making an adjustment to correct the date.
HTH :)
