Deleting charge adjustments

You can delete a charge adjustment that was posted in Ledger and has not been moved to history (when closing a month).

Notes:

Deleted charge adjustments are stored in Dentrix Enterprise. You can generate an audit trail report to see the original entry along with a notation that the charge adjustment was deleted.

Deleting charge adjustments requires the "Debit Adjustment, Edit" and "Debit Adjustment, Delete" security rights.
