Unable to edit recurring transaction

Question

Hi there,&nbsp; Re:&nbsp; Lists, Recurring Transaction, Edit:&nbsp; I'm wondering if I have come across another glitch in the recently updated Accountright.&nbsp; I went into edit a name in one of my recurring schedules but I first got a message that I couldn't edit within a locked period and then when I unlocked the period another message came up telling me I couldn't edit transactions before beginning of financial year.&nbsp; What is happening???&nbsp; I've never had this problem with editing recurring transaction info before.&nbsp; I suspect this is another glitch that's come about with the upgrade.&nbsp; I've got to say that this new version is becoming a bit of a pain.

Hi&nbsp;Lynzo_H,&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Thank you for your post. The error message 'couldn't edit transactions before beginning of financial year' may be the same message as&nbsp;"You may not enter transactions before the beginning of your financial year"&nbsp;if this is the exact error message this can occur if the Next due date in the recurring transaction is in the previous financial year.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
To be able to delete or edit the recurring transaction you'll need to change the Next due date:

Click the recurring transaction and click Edit schedule&nbsp;
Change the next due date to a date in the current financial year&nbsp;
Click OK

Additionally article Deleting a recurring transaction has an example of this scenario.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
If this is not the error you are receiving please provide a screenshot of the exact error you are receiving.&nbsp;
