Repost Line Items, Change Internal Order, Redistribute Cost, Reverse Entry
To Reduce the number of keying errors, be sure to use the latest revised departmental forms for requesting journal entries, invoice vouchers, departmental deposits, etc. If an Internal order number field is not on the form, please write the Internal order by the cost center and highlight it. Unfortunately, no matter how much care is taken, errors will occur.
How a transaction is corrected depends upon how it was entered and the type of error made.
NOTE: Items posted in the Controlling module will not be reflected on the FM Reports.
