Void Inventory Sessions

Training
Full training library

With the proper user permissions, Acctivate users can void inventory transactions posted incorrectly to be reposted with the correct information, as part of Acctivate’s inventory control functionality.

This prompts recalculation of unit costs for transactions effected by this change, as well as quantity on hand and any journal entries related to it.

It is important to consider voiding posted inventory transactions an administrative tool. Once voided, it is not possible to re-post the transaction. Users would need to recreate a new session to undo a void.

When voiding a session which creates a lot/serial number, make sure to verify what transactions utilize this lot/serial number. Track and Trace can be utilized for this purpose prior to voiding. If the lot or serial numbers were transferred, used in an assembly as a component, or sold to a customer on a sales invoice, be sure to either recreate the same lot/serial number used originally or void any transaction which utilized it to be recreated with the proper lot/serial number selected.
