General Ledger
Correction of Transactions
Generally transactions should be corrected in the system that was the source of the transaction. If a department wants to change the coding on a payroll transaction, they need to use the payroll retro form so the transaction can be first corrected in the payroll system. The payroll retro correction later will be included in the next payroll's general ledger posting. For other types of coding corrections, such as accounts payable, the Interdepartmental Billing form may be used with appropriate supporting documentation. If corrections are too numerous for the IDB form to be practical, please contact the Accounting Office to arrange a special spreadsheet upload of the corrections.
