How do I "undo" or reverse a payment to a vendor?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Tue, 05/22/2012 - 00:16

I have made a payment to a vendor, but entered an incorrect date, far in
the future. Consequently the payment does not show when I try to reconcile
the relevant bank statement.

How do I back-out the incorrectly entered payment?

Cash/Vouchers/Reverse Payment.

Then when you are done adding the payments you want to reverse,
approve the batch.

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Tue, 11/01/2011 - 02:05

Short answer: Yes

LedgerSMB can tie product sales to a tax class so that VAT can automatically be split off into the required VAT accounts on a sale, and when cancelling an invoice, automatically perform the reverse bookings.

Each product can be 'attached' to an account and the associated % will be applied automatically.

I'm not an accountant, how do I learn how to keep my books?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Sun, 04/22/2007 - 05:13

Some of the more popular small business accounting packages tend to hide these aspects of book-keeping from users for simplicity, so with the current user interface there is often some new ideas to grasp.

First step is the manual - the LedgerSMB manual is free and highly recommended reading.
