Change Date Salary Payment

Hi,

I would like to change salary payment from 20/11/2019 to 31/10/2018, as it should enter in accounting period until 31.10.18. It doesn’t allow detag and date is in gray. I didn’t submit company accounts until 31/10/2018, neither VAT until 31.1.2020 so it shouldn’t be locked.

How to do it?

Thanks,
Dan

Your question is very confusing. Your asking to change the date of something to a date prior to when you submitted your accounts and vat. You said so it shouldnt be locked but this is exactly why it should be locked.

Please can you refrase your question so it’s easier to understand.

I didn’t submit company accounts until 31/10/2018, neither VAT until 31.1.2020 so it shouldn’t be locked.

So you submitted your accounts on 31/10/18? All period up to that date will be locked.

So unless you unlock your year end and delete the closing journal, you won’t be able to add anything on that date or before it.

You also have another issue. Again your previously submitted vat returns have locked your salary transaction, so again unless you roll your vat return back, you won’t be able to change that either.

Search the knowledge base for how to unlock an accounting period, follow those steps, then add your salary and then close the year off again.

As for the incorrect entry for salary on wrong date, you will need to create a journal to reverse the entry.

If its all to complicated, seek an accountant.

Apologise, it was confusing.

It shouldnt be locked, as last accounts locked are up to 31.10.18

And I didn’t submit VAT return inttil 31.1.20 yet

Just go to reports then journals. Find the journal which shows your salary and change the journal date.

Other than that I don’t know how else to help you.
