Reclassifying Transactions

Once the desired transactions have been filtered, follow these steps to reclassify them:
  1. Select Transactions: Manually check each transaction or use the Check All button to select all transactions.
  2. Initiate Reclassification: Click the Reclassify Transactions button.
  3. Enter New Details: In the popup window, specify the new GL Account, Company, Class, or Project for the selected transactions.
  4. Confirm Reclassification: Click Reclassify to process the changes.
