If a record was entered twice, totals and balances may be wrong.

Steps

  1. Find both records.
  2. Compare amount, date, account, category and note.
  3. Confirm which one should remain.
  4. Delete or correct the duplicate if deletion is available and appropriate.
  5. Check the dashboard or report again.

Be careful with linked records

  • Do not delete invoice payments, bill payments, customers, suppliers or inventory records without checking what they are linked to.
