Re: Error updating an old transaction

Hi,
I'm getting errors when I try to update an old transaction. It's dying in the SQL, but I'm not totally sure where as it's not giving me a line number. The error is being captured, then then it's dying again in the error reporting method:

First, a disclaimer: In general it is a problem to update old transactions. Because it violates basic accounting principles there are topics such as COGS generation where there are no accepted correct answers. Yet the old SQL-Ledger behavior is still possible to restore (probably will be until 1.5), so be warned.

I remember in lsmb 1.2 I had to run some code to enable old transactions to be updated. Is that this case in 1.3?

Right. You can re-enable this by granting DELETE permissions on acc_trans. This will be removed in future versions (probably 1.5).

The Correct Way:

The correct way to handle this is to void and re-enter the invoice. We have a void button at the bottom for this.
