Access this screen from the Investments Dashboard, after highlighting an investment to Edit (or view), selecting either Principal, Discount, Premium, or Accrued Balance, Life income earned, Offset amount, or Gain/Loss amount, choosing a transaction from the resulting screen and selecting Update.

This screen is used to make an error correction on a transaction shown in the history for this accrued expense item (like using “White Out” on a paper ledger card).

IMPORTANT: BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN MAKING ANY CHANGES ON THIS SCREEN! A correction made here will NOT affect the G/L or the balance of this subsidiary record; only the transaction history list will be changed. Any changes that are necessary to adjust the G/L or subsidiary record must be made manually. In addition, changes here do not affect the “Life Totals” for this investment. Remember that entries can be made to the subsidiary ledger but not posted to the General Ledger if the G/L is already correct. Also be careful about back dating these transactions because the resulting balance on any history item from the adjustment post date forward does not recalculate.

  • Delete (F16) can be used to remove the entire transaction from history.
