Amending an incorrect date on a payment for a recorded purchase

Question

Has anyone got advice on how I fix an incorrect date entered for a payment (myob terminology "deposit transaction") for a recorded purchase as it won't allow me to delete this transaction nor can I alter the date to be correct. It does need to be amended as the date has the incorrect year. Many thanks

Ok thanks Mike that makes sense.

Hi @GJP002 , the actual transaction date cannot be changed, so my suggestion is to fix the ledger by putting a journal entry (GJ) through to reverse the transaction at the wrong date, and repeat the transaction entry (as a GJ) at the correct date.
