If the transaction being edited is for AR, AP or Cash, the reversing entries are created.  Otherwise, they should not be.

We have not yet updated, so cannot confirm problem, but this would be a MAJOR headache for me.
 
GL-P is used for editing dates when backing out Work Order Issues in a prior accounting period, and I do not want to affect the prior period financial statements.  If I need to back out a transaction from Sept., I reset Period Close date back to Sept., perform the backout entry, then modify the date for the backout entry to October in GL-P and post the entry to October so not to affect September financials as they relate to Work In Process and Inventory.
 
I also use GL-P to change the General Ledger Account for various transaction types that are hardcoded in the programming.  For example, IN-C transactions are hardcoded to Cost of Goods Sold.  I do not want them there, so I reclass to Inventory Shrinkage GL.  (Yes, I did add this to my wish list in Suggestions for Updates on the Forum). Income accounts are hardcoded based on Customer Code, but sometimes we have various income accounts for the same customer that can appear on one invoice, I.E. General Sales, Machine Programming Sales, Engineering Design Sales. GL-P is instrumental in modifying the GL account for these transactions also.
 
Please fix this bug for us bean counters.
