Transactions locked

[Jill Terry]

Not sure if I replied to Maf privately in error, sorry if I did!

Not, it wasn't an invoice.   I have just opened a dummy AR account and 
seeing that I was incorrect in thinking that my original account was 
probably an AR account - so, back to square 1!!! :(

Assumptions are usually wrong on my part but I'm guessing there would be no invoice to un-post? Just took a quick look in a test file and see if I use Duplicate Transaction the Type is clear in the new one, the old one can be deleted and running reconcile in the credit card works as expected.
