Supplier cleanup in Pastel Partner 12

[HPKOCH]

Hi,
I am cleaning up Suppliers in Pastel Partner 12. To reverse a Supplier Invoices i use"Return & Debit".
How do i reverse a payment? (But not via Cashbook as my Bankrecons will be out) Is it "Credit to Supplier"
Thanks

Why do you want to reverse a payment?

If it is because you processed the payment entry in error, then your bank recon will be out anyway, and you then need to reverse it in the cashbook.

If it is because you allocated the payment entry to the incorrect supplier, then reverse it in the cashbook (process a cashbook payment to the incorrect supplier again, but with a minus sign in front of the amount), and then process it again in the cashbook to the correct supplier. The net effect on your bank recon will be zero.

Hi Neville,
The prevouis people basically screwed up Suppliers ledgers:
1)Posting from CB to supplier but no Supplier invoice loaded, or
2)Supplier invoice loaded but post from CB straight to GL code, or
3)Did not load Supplier invoices for the last 3 months, but kept on posting from CB to suppliers Account or straight to GL code

So, its a mess and i dont have time to reconstruct all.....
I want to get rid of all the junk or make/force each supplier balance ZERO and then load only (say August 2013) supplier invoices
But not via my CB because it reconciles
