Void, delete, or reverse transactions

You can delete, void, or reverse individual or multiple transactions at the same time.

Delete

When you delete an unprinted check or a journal entry, the application removes it from the database completely. When you delete a printed check or other type of bank account transaction, the application marks it as deleted and removes it from the Transactions list and all related reports.

Void

(Checks and payments) When you void a transaction, the application displays
**VOID**
 in the Amount column of the Transactions list and adds the voided transaction amount back to the account balance and check summary memo (if needed). This gives a paper trail showing that the transaction was voided.
When you void a check, the void date is the same as the original check date. If you want the voided amount applied to a different date, you can use the Reverse button and specify that the reversal amount post to a specific date.

Reverse

(Checks and payments) When you reverse a transaction, the application creates a separate transaction with matching negative amounts and a status of “Reversal”. The application changes the status of the original transaction to “Reversed”.
