Editing expenses with locked lines

Updated over a week ago

This article explains how editing works for expenses with multiple lines, including what happens when one or more lines are part of a published owner statement.

This is useful when:

  • An expense has multiple allocation lines

  • One or more lines are included on a published owner statement

  • You still need to edit other parts of the expense safely

How Locked Expense Lines Work

In VRTrust, only the specific expense lines included in a published owner statement are locked, while other lines on the same expense remain editable.

In the video, we look at an example where:

  • A multi-line expense includes:

    • One line allocated to Sunset Palms

    • One line allocated to San Remo

  • The San Remo owner statement for December has already been published

  • The Sunset Palms owner statement is still in draft

In this case, The San Remo expense line is locked, but the Sunset Palms expense line remains editable

Edit an Expense with Locked Lines

  1. Open the expense you want to edit.

  2. Click Edit to enter Edit Mode.

  3. Look for the lock icon on individual expense lines:

    • Locked lines cannot be changed

    • Editable lines remain fully adjustable

  4. Note that the date is also locked when an expense is tied to a published statement.

  5. Make any necessary changes to the unlocked lines.

  6. Save your changes.

Why This Matters

  • It protects the integrity of published owner statements

  • It prevents unintended financial changes after publishing

  • It allows you to continue managing and correcting expenses where appropriate
