Undo a Completed Posting

When you undo a completed posting, Vision extracts the posted records, marks the original posting run log as Removed and creates a new posting log with an AL transaction type.

To undo a completed posting:

  1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Utilities > Advanced Utilities > Undo Posting.
  2. In the Transaction Type field on the Undo Posting form, select a transaction type. Vision displays all posting runs completed during the current accounting period.

    The transaction type list is filtered based on your security role's access rights. If you use Vision Multicompany, this list is further refined based on the active company. See the Accounting tab of Role Security (Configuration > Security > Roles) for more information.

  3. Optional. To limit the number of transactions, select the Show only transactions posted by me option.
  4. Select the file that you want to unpost and click Undo Posting. Vision displays the following message:

    You are about to undo the selected posting and remove the associated data from the database. Are you sure you want to unpost the selected file?

    When you use the Undo Posting utility for a voucher payment where the original voucher charges have been transferred to a new project, the billing transfer posting is not affected. You will get unexpected results on the Vouchers by Project and Consultant's Ledger Reports, but the General Ledger and AP Sub-ledger will be correct. Vision displays the following message asking you to confirm the undo posting:

    The file selected contains a record or records associated with intercompany billing. Unposting these records will not affect the intercompany billing postings. Do you want to continue? Yes/No.

  5. Click Yes. After you unpost a file, if the associated transaction file is archived, you can resubmit the transaction file.
