Editing, voiding and undo
Fix a mistake without losing history — edits keep the previous version, and voided entries can be restored.
Edit an entry
Click Edit on an entry in the journal. The entry panel opens with its details; change what you need and save.
Behind the scenes Asienta doesn’t overwrite the entry: the previous version is voided and the new one recorded, in one step. That is why yesterday’s report never changes without a trace. If the date stays the same and you didn’t set a rate, the new version keeps the previous rate.
Void an entry
Void removes an entry from balances, totals and reports. It is not erased.
Undo
After voiding or editing, a notification appears with undo:
- undoing a void brings the entry back;
- undoing an edit restores the previous version and voids the replacement.
Special cases
- Transfer fees are their own entries: edit a fee in the journal on its own. Voiding a transfer voids its fee too.
- Opening balances are changed on the account card, under Balances — see Accounts.
