How to: Correct Dimension Value Codes on Ledger Entries

Dimension value codes are always company-defined and company-named. To see the dimension value codes for your company, open the Dimensions window. Select the relevant dimension. On the Navigate tab, choose Dimension Values.

If a ledger entry has been posted with an incorrect dimension value code, you must correct it. Since you cannot change the code on the posted entry, you must correct the error by creating a reverse entry with the incorrect code and posting a new entry with the correct code.

To correct entries by posting two journal lines

  • General ledger, customer, vendor, and bank account ledger entries must be posted from a general journal.

  • Resource ledger entries must be posted from a resource journal.

  • Job ledger entries must be posted from a job journal.

  • Fixed asset ledger entries can be posted from a FA general ledger journal or a FA journal, depending on whether integration has been activated.

  • For item ledger entries, you must follow different procedures for sales and purchase entries.
