You use the G/L Journal Entry screen to edit all types of General Ledger batches, whether they were created by another Sage 300 subledger or imported from a non-Sage 300 program, provided that they have not been posted or deleted, or set Ready to Post (on the Batch List screen). More...
Note: You can edit batches that have been provisionally posted.
Before you start

- In the Batch Number field, specify batch you want to edit, or type the batch number.
You can now select an entry from the batch.
- In the Entry Number field, specify the entry you want to edit, or type the entry number in the field.
The journal entry is now available for editing.
