restoring deleted account

Posted on by 130

Does anyone have experience restoring a deleted account?

Utilizing the Professional Resource Tool in GP 10, we are in the midst of manually changing the account numbering system. Unfortunately, one equity asset account was accidentally deleted. Odd enought, none of the other account balances were affected by deletion of the transactions in the equity account.

The current numbering system is 014-xxx-xxx for incomes, 015- xxx-x xx for expenses, etc. The new numbering system still contains 9 digits, but changed to 4xx-xxx-xxx as incomes and 5xx-xxx-xxx as expenses, etc. Change was necessary due to the difficulty of retrieving reports from Management Reporter because the drill down feature becomes useless. Additonally, this change has exponentially increased the number of accounts we can add. 

Since the project commenced, more than one month's work has been added into GP, along with year-end adjustments and changing 1500+ active and inactive account numbers and descriptions. Therefore, I do not want to restore to the last full back up and recreate all that work.

Since DR should equal CR, and if entries are made to re-establish the equity account, it would mess up any offsetting account we use. I am wondering if it is possible to create an accounting segment that would not show up in the financial reports, balance sheet or income statement.
