Key Features
Schedule automatic reversal of journal entries on a future date with a daily cron
Reverse Entry switch
A simple Reverse Entry toggle on every Miscellaneous journal entry lets you mark it for scheduled automatic reversal.
Pick the reversal date
A dedicated Reversal Date field lets you choose exactly when the reversal entry should be generated—ideal for month-end accruals and provisions.
Daily scheduled job
A built-in daily scheduled action automatically posts reversals on the chosen date—no need to remember manual month-end reversals.
Auto Reversal Entry link
Each source entry shows a direct link to its generated Auto Reversal Entry, so you can trace the pair with one click.
Failure flag & reason
If the reversal cannot be created, the source entry is flagged with Reverse Failed and a clear Reverse Failure Reason so accountants can act on it.
Auto Created Reversal marker
Reversal entries created by the job carry a read-only Auto Created Reversal marker so they are easy to identify in lists and filters.
No duplicate reversals
Each entry is reversed only once—the link to the existing reversal prevents the job from creating duplicates on later runs.
Only posted entries processed
Only posted journal entries with the flag set and a Reversal Date equal to today are processed—drafts and future-dated entries stay untouched.
Configurable frequency
Runs once a day by default; administrators can tune the frequency from Settings → Technical → Scheduled Actions to fit your accounting rhythm.

Mark a posted journal entry to be reversed automatically on a future date—a daily scheduled action creates the reversal for you.
1. What this module does
This module lets you mark a posted journal entry to be reversed automatically on a future date. A daily scheduled action creates the reversal entry for you, so you do not have to remember to do it manually at month-end or when an accrual or provision needs to be reversed. The original entry stays linked to its generated reversal, and any failure during the job is clearly flagged on the source entry for follow-up.
2. Before you go live
- Install Accounting and this module from Apps.
- Confirm the scheduled action Accounting: create scheduled reversal entries is active under Settings → Technical → Scheduled Actions.
- Adjust the frequency only if your team needs reversals processed more or less often than once per day.
3. Marking an entry for automatic reversal
- Open the journal entry you want to be reversed later: Accounting → Accounting → Journal Entries.
- Tick Reverse Entry and set the Reversal Date to the day the reversal should appear.
- Post the entry as usual.
4. What happens on the chosen date
- The scheduled action Accounting: create scheduled reversal entries runs and creates the reversal entry.
- The new entry is linked back to the original through Auto Reversal Entry and carries the Auto Created Reversal marker.
- If the reversal cannot be created for any reason, the original entry is flagged with Reverse Failed and the Reverse Failure Reason is shown so you can review and fix it.
- Each entry is reversed only once—the link to the reversal entry prevents duplicates on subsequent runs.
