Depending on the type of GL account there are several editing features available for invoices, bank transactions and the GL account card.

Only a user with the 'Back office' role in the domain or the 'Financial administration' or 'External accountant' role can use the the editing features of a GL account.

You can open a GL account from the trial balance, the chart of accounts or by clicking the GL account in an opened already processed document.
