Correcting A/P Adjustments

[Lidleoompa]

I am using Accpac version 5.3B

An adjustment was made to an invoice through AP-AD. Later on that adjustment was reversed. It reversed it through all the accounts that it affected in the general ledger. However, it did not reverse it in the AP aging. How can this be corrected?

You reversed the reversal, which means it's back to where you started. You need to do another adjustment.

It's back to where it started in the G/L accounts but now the AP aging shows that we owe twice as much money. Is it possible to make a one-sided adjustment that will only affect the aging? Someone had said to do a debit note and apply it to the original invoice. I then would post the AP batch that this debit note is in, but then I would have to delete the g/l batch before it gets posted. Does this make any sense?

If the aging shows twice as much money, then you screwed up either the accounts you used, or the direction of the adjustments in the first place. What you should really do is enter those two adjustments backwards to put everything back where you started, then enter them correctly.

FWIW, a debit note with a G/L deletion just might work. It also might put you farther away. Hard to say without seeing your data.
