This is done via the screen <strong>Manage Transactions<\/strong> which is under the&nbsp;<strong>Administration<\/strong> drop-down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1-1024x438.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1-1024x438.png 1024w, https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1-768x329.png 768w, https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1-1536x657.png 1536w, https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1-1200x514.png 1200w, https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_p1.png 1755w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This lists all the transactions in the cash book, initially for the whole of the current financial year. In this case there is quite a small number of them, but if there are a large number, you can apply a filter so that you only display the ones in which you are interested. Here is the menu for setting filters, accessed by clicking on the button&nbsp;<strong>Set filters<\/strong> at the top left of the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_filter_p2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3579\" srcset=\"https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_filter_p2.png 720w, https:\/\/documentation.easypcaccounts.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/manage_Trans_filter_p2-300x147.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 85vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The fields on this form should be self-explanatory. Most are drop-down menus where you can select various options. The minimum value field requires you to type in a value when all transactions above that value will be shown. This feature is provided to satisfy one of the requirements of the transparency code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have set the appropriate filters then click&nbsp;<strong>Apply<\/strong> and the new list will be displayed. For example, if you select the account code&nbsp;<strong>Stationery, postage, telephone<\/strong> the list will show just the details for voucher number 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use one of the buttons at the right either to delete the transaction or to edit it. If you click on&nbsp;<strong>Delete<\/strong> you see a screen which asks you to confirm or cancel the deletion. If you choose&nbsp;<strong>Edit<\/strong> then the screen is almost identical to the screen for creating a new transaction except that there is only one&nbsp;<strong>Save&nbsp;<\/strong>button. You can make any changes on this screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the transaction had either been bank reconciled or VAT had been reclaimed, then the software will not allow you to delete it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes you will wish to modify or delete a transaction.
