Correcting transactions in Sage Accounts

This helps you in making amendments: Reverse, Delete or Edit Transactions in Sage Accounts. The only point is that the transactions can’t be reversed on its own or automatically. You have to do it manually.

The Scenario of Correction of Transaction

Any audit trail in the transaction is made up of Non-Critical and Critical Fields. It generates certain postings when any transaction is corrected depending upon the transaction status whether you amend it or not.

Here is the list of Critical and Non-Critical Fields

To make corrections in Critical Fields

• It takes original detail to make a new deleted transaction.
• The Amended Transaction accompanies the original transactions.
• If you use VAT Reconciled Transaction to amend any critical field, a new transaction will be posted to reverse the outcome of the first transaction (it can be original transaction). There can be some other transactions with complete and authentic details.

To make corrections in Non-Critical Fields

No new transaction will be created. Instead, certain changes will be made in the original Transaction.
