Rearrange Transaction

Rearrange Transaction renumbers documents of one kind (vendor invoices, customer invoices, payments, collections, inventory documents or general vouchers) for a financial year or one period, in order of posting date, and updates every place the old number was referred to.

What it is for​

The new numbers come from the screen’s number range on Process Number Range, or from the journal’s own range where From Journal is ticked. Everything that carried the old number (lines, tax lines, ledger and clearing entries, linked inventory documents) is changed to the new one. There is no undo; run it on a copy first and keep a backup.

  • Printed copies no longer match. Rearranging changes numbers already issued; reprint what was shared.
