How to Configure Branch Wise Backdate Entry and Modification Locking Schedule?

In this tutorial, you will learn how to apply backdate entry and modification restrictions branch-wise in Logic ERP. This feature helps organizations maintain data consistency and control across multiple branches.


Open Branch-Wise Locking Setup

To begin:

  • Navigate to the User Access Module.

  • Open Set Branch Wise Back Date Entry / Modification Locking.

This window displays a list of all branches available in the system.


Select Branch for Locking

  • Identify the Branch where you want to apply restrictions.

  • Press the Spacebar in the respective column.

  • A new window will open showing a list of documents.


Choose Document for Locking

  • Select the document (e.g., Sale Document).

Open Lock Settings:

  • Right-click → Click Settings OR

  • Press F3 (shortcut)


Configure Lock Criteria

  • The Lock for Back Date Entry Window will open.

  • Here, you can define different locking rules.


Apply “Till Date” Lock

Let’s configure a Till Date Lock.

  • Select the “Till Date” option.

  • Enter the specific date up to which entries should be locked.

  • Click Save.

What this means:

  • All transactions up to the selected date will be:

    • Restricted for new backdated entries

    • Restricted for modifications


Implement the Lock (Branch Level)

  • Now verify how the restriction works.

  • Ensure you are logged into the same branch (e.g., Head Office).

Implement Backdated Entry Restriction

  • Open the Sale Bill Window.

  • Create a new transaction with a date within the locked period.

  • Try to save the bill.

Result:

  • The system will block the entry

  • An error message will be displayed


Implement Modification Restriction

  • Open an existing bill dated before the locked date.

  • Attempt to modify and save it.

Result:

  • The system will prevent modification

  • Changes cannot be saved


Key Benefits of Branch-Wise Locking

  • Apply control at branch level

  • Maintain data consistency across locations

  • Prevent unauthorized backdated entries

  • Strengthen audit and compliance

  • Enable centralized control with decentralized operations


Final Outcome

You have successfully learned how to:

  • Configure Branch-Wise Locking Settings

  • Restrict Backdated Entries & Modifications

  • Enforce branch-level data control

Your system is now better equipped for multi-branch security and operational discipline.
