OVER Ride of Journal Sets

If the user journal override feature is enabled, then journals sets created from modules external to the General Ledger e.g. debtor debit adjustment, creditor purchase invoice can be edited as the originating transaction is activated.

The journal set is automatically displayed and references the originating transaction in the Description field. Data lines can be edited to change the disbursement of the journal, however the total of the journal set CANNOT be altered.

Steps

1. Make any changes necessary to change the disbursement - edit existing lines ensuring that the total of the journal set is not changed
2. Modify the Tax Code if necessary and adjust the GST amounts if required
3. Save the journal set

If the set total has been changed, a message will display on saving:

 “ Totals do not match originals totals sent from the source document”. OK to the message and continue with saving
