Overview
How to Copy a Transaction. When copying a transaction, you will find this feature especially useful if there are little or no data changes in the transaction (rent, for example). The steps to copying a transaction are as follows:
Step 1 - Recall the transaction to be copied to the screen.
Step 2 - Select Copy from the toolbar.
Step 3 - You will then be prompted for up to four pieces of information. These are:
| • | Check Number - Refers to the check number from a received payment which is added to the transaction to be copied (in the Receipts Journal). |
| • | Key Field - The key asked for, depends on the journal. (For example, in the Purchase Journal it is the vendor invoice number, in the Disbursements Journal it is the check number.) |
| • | Transaction Date - The transaction date depends on the journal. (For example, in the Purchase Journal it is the invoice date , in the Disbursements Journal it is the check date.) |
| • | G/L Period - G/L period for the new transaction. Must be an open period. |
| • | Mark New Entry as Posted - When checked, the new entry will be flagged as posted. (Only available based on global settings) |
