Reverse A Period
This utility will generate a general journals batch that will contain a series of debits and credits that will reverse (if posted) an entire accounting period. This utility can be used when a substantial number of posting mistakes have been made, a back-up is not available to restore the system to its original state, and the operator wishes to start over by restoring the balances in that period to zero.
See the section on posting batches in this reference guide for guide-lines on posting and reverse posting batches.
Keep in mind that operators who use this utility solely for the reason that they did not make a back-up
and therefore have no other choice, calls into question the professional competency of that person.
Always back-up your system before you commence batch postings!
