Re: [SL] Once an item is added, the income account cannot be changed.

[Jeff R. <je...@jr...>]

/I can simply delete and re-add the item with the correct income account
but I am wondering if this will affect any reports or previous invoices
I made with that item. /


If you've used/sold the item in an invoice I don't think you'll be able 
to delete it. Check again, you shouldn't be able to delete an item 
you've sold.

Once you have sold an item you will not be able to change the account it 
is attached to either, it sort of becomes written in stone. If you want 
to change the account you must delete all invoices that used/sold that 
item, then change the account or delete the item and then re-enter all 
the invoices.

This is not a bug, it is the way it should be.
