This task is used to modify the amount of a receivable open item and determine the GL Offset for that change. If you find this task is not available, it may be due to the security settings your System Administrator has defined. Alternatively, you may use the Correct Billing for Selected Receivable task to modify only the amount of the receivable open item.
If you need to make adjustments to the receivable balances that are exceptions to a billing schedule with this task, these will be recorded in event history as "Receivable Adjustments". If you ever maintain this schedule, that task will not look at these Receivable Adjustments when evaluating the schedule. If this Receivable Adjustment should be evaluated by the schedule, do not use this task. Instead use the Maintain Selected Scheduled Receivable task.
This task is available only for transactions that are not related to a certification. If you need to correct rent or subsidy you must modify the certification on the Transaction Tab of the household to affect corrections to the billing.
Household Detail Accounting Tab Receivables Tab highlight the receivable you want to adjust in the Open Items section Tasks Adjust Selected Receivable
