Delete a journal entry

Delete a journal entry only when it was created in error. Deleted entries cannot be recovered. Select Menu, then select Accounting > Journal and open Journal entries.

Before you begin

You need permission to delete journal entries. The entry must be in a status and accounting period that allow deletion. Review linked applications and reversals first. Deleting an original entry also deletes its linked reversal, but deleting a reversal does not delete the original entry.
