Listing Account Transactions

Clicking an account in the Accounts screen lists all transactions linked to the account.

To enter a new transaction, click add located near the top-right corner of the screen. To view or edit an existing transaction, double-click the transaction. To carry out other actions for an existing transaction, right-click the transaction and choose the appropriate option (see below).

Why are transactions greyed out?

A greyed-out transaction indicates one or more of the following:

  • The transaction appears on a statement. For these, you are not able to change information such as the transaction type or amount. If you need to correct an amount you previously entered, you can edit the transaction from the Statement screen.

  • The transaction is dated before the date of the last Profit and Loss consolidation or VAT return.

Opening a transaction gives the reason why it is greyed out at the bottom of the transaction form.
