    Hi community, thanks for your input and support into this idea for auto updating related journals when an auto-reversing journal is edited. 

    While the team began to look into work involved, priorities have shifted and this is not something we'll be looking to develop at this time. 

    We'll move the status back to submitted and keep you informed if there is any movement.

    Wow, this is a big discovery I made, after 20 years of finance accounting, assuming (obviously!) that when you amend a journal, the reversal also gets amended, I just discovered (new to Xero as a much smaller product) editing the journal does not update the reversal ??!! And it doesn't even highlight it, so if you don't know, you only find out when balances do not add up. It was not a priority back in 2014 or 2022 as per the comments above, but seriously, we are in 2026 and still having this BIG massive issue?!
