Making Changes to a Purchase Payment: Editing, Unposting & Deleting a Purchase Payment

Purchase Payments CANNOT be Edited, they can only be Deleted, after they have first been Unreconciled and Unposted.

Once the Purchase Payment is deleted, the Amount Outstanding on the Purchase Invoice will be increased by the amount of the Purchase Payment.

Step-By-Step Guide

1. Unreconcile the Sale Payment, see Unreconciling Purchase Payments
2. Select the Purchase Payment, there are 2 options:
   • From the Purchase Payment List View
   • From the Purchase Payment History of the relevant Purchase Invoice
3. Click Unpost
4. Click Delete

Once the Purchase Payment has been Unposted, the Posting Status will show as Draft, and the Editing Status will show as Unrestricted.

Note that a Deleted Transaction will be saved in the list of Transactions with the Posting Status Deleted to preserve the audit trail.
