  1. From the Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, or General Ledger menu, choose Start of the navigation path Document Next navigation step Reset cleared items. End of the navigation path

Note Note

You can also decide whether the clearing document should be reversed. If you do not reverse it, it will also remain in the system as an open item to be cleared along with the other open items.

An exception to this is the clearing transaction in third currency. Clearing documents with exchange rate differences and clearing transactions involving documents posted with the net procedure: In these cases, the clearing document is reversed by the system when it resets the cleared items.

If you use the Cancel check payment function, in addition to the cleared items being reset, the payment document is reversed, and the related check is voided in the check register. For more information, see Check Management .
