does anyone know how to void a posted sales batch that was posted today but should have been received and posted Sept 30th. There was a batch of invoices that were supposed to be invoiced and posted on Sept 30th however this batch was misplaced. When I found it and was invoicing I forgot to back date them hence the reason it needs to be redone. Can someone please help me my job is on the line this was a 36k mistake on my part
Do you post by batch date or transaction date? If you post by batch date what was the date on the batch? If you post by transaction date what were the dates on the transactions? This can always be correct using SQL. They might want to start marking periods as closed to prevent things like this from happening.
Step 1.) Address your issue by either voiding and re-entering your batch w/ the new (correct) G/L posting date OR book a reversing JE to correct just the G/L & then note this sub-->G/L variance in your month-end reconciliation (echoing what's already been stated here)
Step 2.) Look for new job as this shouldn't be a job threatening issue. Our teams make "mistakes" like this all of the time. There is no system prompt for the most part to notify you when you might be posting in the wrong period & it's unrealistic to think that there will never be clerical errors, we're all human.
Hope everything worked out, hang in there!
If you are only worried about the financial closing (September financials), and assuming you posted the SP invoice batch to October by mistake, Simply create a reversing journal Entry for the correct date in September with a reversing date of October (date of original posting).
This would be far simpler than voiding the original transaction and trying to reset inventory quantities.
