Manual journal editing - add auto-reverse date
When creating a journal and posting it, if we want to go back and make it an auto-reversing journal, the only way is to click "copy" or "reverse" then enter a new journal at a required future date. When doing this, Xero does not link the two (i.e. does not recognise the new journal as an auto reversing journal with the usual hyperlink and note). My suggestion is for Xero to keep the "auto reverse" field open when editing already posted journals. Two example use cases:
1) Accidentally posted journal as a standalone journal and want to then make it a reversing journal;
2) Audit adjustments; to convert a non-reversing journal to reversing
This case links with the existing product idea for Xero to automatically update reversing journals when the original journal is changed, and vice versa. Fixing both issues together would be brilliant!
