    Hi PriscillaNT 

     

    You should be able to open the original credit note, and edit it. There are times when it gets locked, which means it becomes un editable. If this is the case, I suggest doing a General ledger Journal . 

     

    The entry will be Credit Pledges Receivable, and Debit the account it should have been coded to. You may get a warning that this is a linked account, but you can ignore it in this instance.

Hi PriscillaNT 

 

Is your Pledges Receivable account the linked Accounts Receivable account. If so, have a look at your credit and see if the allocation account is the Pledeges Receivable account. This would result in the Debit & Credit posting to the same account. The allocation account for the credit should be the same as the allocation account on the original invoice.

Hi Ian,

 

Thanks for your swift response.

 

The allocation account does appear to be the Pledges Receivable account. However, I can't figure out any way to change it, as it's within a closed off sale. Any advice in this situation?

 

Thanks again.
