Cancel Offset Entries for Bank Settlements
In the Cash Matching workspace, you can cancel offset entries for bank settlements that you previously transferred to the default entity associated with the bank settlement. If you used the Offsetting Transfer option to offset a bank settlement in error, and you want to make the bank settlement available for matching, you can cancel that offset bank settlement. The Cancel Offset Entry option reverses the accounting entries that STAR accounting processed and transferred to the default entity associated with the cash account relationship for the offset bank settlements. The cancellation process removes those settlements from the default entity and returns the bank settlements to an unmatched status so that they are eligible for cash matching.Â
The Cancel Offset Entry option allows you to reverse those offset bank settlements you identified using the Offsetting Transfer option in the Cash Matching workspace's Manual Matching tab. It does not allow you to reverse offset bank settlements identified using the Offset option while the Manual Matching tab is active. And it does not allow you to reverse offset bank settlements you identified using the Offsetting Entries check box while performing a manual match. If you want to match bank settlements marked as offsets using those methods, you must re-enter the bank settlement. For more information, see Identify Bank Settlements as Offsets.
