I am attempting to edit an invoice from a supplier to add vat from a previous year and get a pop up asking for a password to complete transaction. I have entered both mine and clients but it rejects this. can you let me now what is going wrong here please.

Hi XJF499, thanks for joining us on the Community - the password is set by the user who enables the close the books feature within the advanced settings (Cog > Account & settings > Advanced > Accounting) and can be any password (i.e. not related to the User ID login) - are there any other users who may have enabled this?

Thanks for this, no it was exactly as you said and I had not set a password for this type of edit. followed instructions and all's well, thanks again
