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

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

Once the Purchase Failure is deleted, the Amount Outstanding on the Purchase Invoice will be reduced by the amount of the failure.

Step-By-Step Guide

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

Once the Purchase Failure 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.
