Help,

I am new to sage and my predessor has made a cock up.

A bacs payment of £35 came in and she allocated what she thought they had paid (alas this was wrong) The amount was on the bank statement so she reconciled this on the bank rec.

However my boss wanted the receipt to be deleted through maintenance to bring back the invoices in which the bacs was paying.

This was done and the correct invoices were alllocated.

however the amont of £35K is now showing up again on the bank rec.

how do I get over this.

My boss is not that knowledgable and I feel that I am not winning here.

Your problem is not clear?

She posted £35 instead of £35000?

If you deleted the transaction, and it had been reconciled, you should have found that the bank reconciliation balance went out by the amount of the transaction. When you reports the transaction then it will appear and reconciling it will correct the reconciliation balance

Sorry to confuse you.

Ok, what happened a bacs came in and unsure of what to allocated she made it add up ie part allocated against invoices.

When the company paid another payment I noticed that the error had been made, as in allocating the wrong invoices against the previous payment.

So my boss told me to deleted the original payment of £35K which bought back the wrong allocated invoices letting me allocate the right invoices against what was orinally paid.

The bank rec is now showing a new receipt for the £35K that i put back on to enable me to allocate against the right invoices.

I hope this is clearer.

If the bank rec is now showing the £35K then as a corresponding old transaction for £35k which had been reconciled in the bank has been deleted the reconciled balance should now be £35k different.

Reconciling the £35k transaction should put the reconcile balance back to what it should be.
