The solution to the original problem would just have been to edit the supplier payment on account and change the bank account from 1200 to your petty cash account. However, it appears you have since posted another payment from the petty cash account so the best thing to do would be to delete the original bank transaction.

Sorry, on re-reading I think I misunderstood your question.  I thought the actual payment was from petty cash but realised you may mean the Sage posting was accidentally made using that account.  If you now have 2 x payments on the supplier account, one of which is wrong and one which is right, just delete the one that is wrong.

Hi Anita, thank you for your reply.

I think you understood right at first. I have payment from petty cash as payment on the account and later bank payment allocated to the suppliers invoice. 

yes, i was thinking to delete petty cash payment although the petty cash amount won't be correct. 

How do i top up petty cash to the right balance?

Thanks again

If you started off with, say, £300 in the Petty Cash account and then posted a supplier payment for £50 in error, the PC balance would drop (incorrectly) to £250.  As the posting to the supplier account was wrong, deleting it will remove it from that supplier account and at the same time revert the PC balance back to £300.

Thank you.

I wasn't sure if this is going to be the case because of the double entry/opposite transaction thing. 

Great, appreciate it.
