Replacing a posted document without changing the journal entry

Replace a document that has already been posted with a new one without losing its journal entry number.

From the Ubyquo Documentos (Documents) module you can replace a document that is already posted with a new one, keeping the same journal entry number.

To do this correctly, you need to temporarily change the status of the original document to NO CONTABILIZADO (NOT POSTED), delete it, add the new document, and assign it the corresponding journal entry number again.

1

Locate the original document

Go to the corresponding folder and find the document you want to replace using the journal entry number.

2

Change the document status

Once you have found the document, change its status from CONTABILIZADO (POSTED) to NO CONTABILIZADO.

You can do this from the context button or from the top menu:

Menú > Cambiar estado > Marcar como NO CONTABILIZADO (Menu > Change status > Mark as NOT POSTED)

Send the new document to the Invoices module

Select the new document and use one of the following options:

  • Enviar a facturas (Send to invoices)
  • Mover a módulo de facturas (Move to Invoices module)

This will let you open the Facturas (Invoices) module and correctly complete the document's accounting data.

Assign the journal entry number

In the Documentos tab, find the new document and, in the Asiento (Journal entry) column, enter the same journal entry number the original document had.

The system will automatically update the document status to CONTABILIZADO.
