You can delete the transfer in your Chart of Accounts, rgsharma999. Let me guide you through the process of deleting it in QuickBooks.

 

Before doing so, did you encounter any error message upon deleting the transfer? It can help us get on the same page and provide accurate resolution. Also, ensure that you have permission to delete any transaction in the bank register if you're not the master admin.

 

If you've manually recorded the transfer, follow the steps below to delete it. Just ensure to list down the important details of the transfer:

 

  1. Select Accounting from the sidebar menu.
  2. Go to Chart of Accounts.
  3. Find the bank account holding the transaction, then select View Register from the Action column.
  4. Locate and click the transfer to expand the view.
  5. Click Delete, then choose Yes to confirm the changes.

 

Once done, you can now create a bank deposit.

 

However, if it's recorded on a closed fiscal year, you'll need to enter the password you've set up. With this, I highly recommend seeking advice from your accountant for further guidance on this matter. To edit the closing date, here's how:

 

  1. In Settings, go to Accounts and Settings.
  2. Select the Advanced tab.
  3. Choose Edit ✎ in the Accounting section.
  4. In the Close the Books menu, check if the closing date was changed. If yes, please change it to a future date that you want. 
  5. Hit Save, then click Done on the lower right of your screen. 

 

Once done, you can now proceed to the deleting the transfer.  For details about changing your closing date and password, see this article: Edit your closed books in QuickBooks Online.
