An option to recode GST allocation, Account Allocation and Client/Supplier Card would be very helpful - for users with Administrator/Accountant access only.

 

A competitor's program has a very simple process to re-code items which have been incorrectly recorded.

 

It is very easy to correct data entry mistakes and saves a lot of time by accounting staff making corrections.  (Eg: A client recently had 5 months worth of entries entered as a non-GST registered business and was then advised to backdate the GST registration. If we had a recode option like other programs, this would have taken less than a minute.  As each entry had to be corrected it took 2 days work - an unnecessary expense to the client had they been using a different program.)

Hi Everyone


The AccountRight Browser offers a Find and replace function. This allows the user to replace the account or tax code on a transaction that has been recorded. Check out Help Article: Finding transactions for more information on this feature.

Would really like the ability to recode transactions in bulk (iincluding change GST codes if necessary) eg, transactions coded to balance sheet accounjt but should be profit & loss account.

This original question is from 2016, hard to believe that this still hasn't been updated - I use this feature in Xero software regularly to update user client errors, gst recoding, bulk account recoding, etc - literal life and time-saver......

Can this recoding please include changing bank accounts.  There are times when I've entred multiple expenses or receipt in AR but after realise after it been coded to the wrong bank account.  To be able to the recoding to change the bank account in the Business Online would save alot of time.
