To edit a bill (voucher) in RanceLab software, you can use one of two primary methods:
the Direct Method (via the voucher entry screen) or the Indirect Method (via a report
showing a list of vouchers).
Workflow on Bill Edit in RanceLab
Method 1: Direct Method (using the Voucher Entry Screen)
This method is suitable if you know the approximate date of the bill you want to edit.
1. Navigate to the relevant transaction menu: From the Main Menu, go to the
specific transaction type for the bill (e.g., Sales Management > Transactions >
Sale Invoice).
2. Access the display mode: At the blank Voucher Entry form, specify the
appropriate date range for the bill you want to find.
3. Display the list: Press the Display button or use the shortcut ALT + D to view a list
of vouchers within that date range.
4. Select the bill: Place your cursor on the specific bill you wish to modify and press
Enter. This opens the voucher in "Modification (Alter) mode".
5. Make changes: Now you can change data in any field as desired. You can also fill
up fields that were left blank during the original entry.
6. Save the modifications: After making all the necessary changes, select Yes to
save the modified voucher. The previous data will be overwritten.
7. Undo (if needed): If you modified something by mistake and want to undo the
changes before saving, select No when prompted to save. The original data will
be displayed, and the editing will be undone.
Method 2: Indirect Method (using a Report)
This method is helpful if you are already viewing a report that lists transactions and you
identify a bill to modify.
1. Generate a relevant report: Access any report that shows a list of vouchers (e.g.,
Sale Register, Bills Receivable/Payable reports).
2. Locate the bill: Place your cursor on the voucher you want to modify within the
report list.
3. Enter modification mode: Press the Enter key. This will take you directly to the
voucher entry screen with the selected bill's data loaded in "Modification (Alter)
mode".
4. Make changes: Modify any field as needed.
5. Save the modifications: Select Yes to save your changes.
Additional Navigation Tips
● Navigate between vouchers: You can use the Pg Up and Pg Down keys to move
through different vouchers in modification mode.
● Shortcut keys: RanceLab uses various shortcut keys (like ALT + S to save, ALT +
D to display, etc.), which can speed up the process.
