Invoice entered in wrong month

SOLVED

I just noticed that an insurance invoice was posted to February that was supposed to be posted as an expense in January. How do I fix this? can I just make an adjusting entry to DR accounts payable and CR Insurance for February and do the reverse in January?

    Hi NS86,

    If you do a journal entry you will not reconcile Accounts Payable to the General Ledger. You can find the resolution to this issue by searching Sage Knowledgebase https://support.na.sage.com and look for article 30542. In case you have a problem accessing the knowledgebase, here are the basic steps:

    -If the invoice is paid, void the payment.

    -Go to AP, Checks, Void Payments and select Void checks by Cash Account or Void Payments by Vendor.

    -Either void the invoice or create a credit memo:

    -If no adjustments or payments have been applied to the invoice, void it in AP, Invoices, Invoices, Void.

    -If the invoice has adjustment or payment activity, it cannot be voided. To process the void, post a credit      memo using the invoice date. Go to AP, Invoices, Credit Memo.

    -Go to AP, Invoices, Invoices, Enter.

    -Post the invoice using the correct date.

    -If the invoice was paid, post the payment using the original payment date in AP, Checks, Enter Payments.
