I'll explain how the journal entry numbers work in the system, Ita.

QuickBooks uses a sequential numbering system for journal entries. When creating a journal entry, you can change the number in the Journal no. field, and the system will then follow the specified order for numbering transactions moving forward. The system automatically increases it by one based on the last entry.

Please see the visual reference below:

If you're referring to updating the number of journal entries in the past, start by running the Journal report to locate the specific transaction. Here's how:

1. Select the Reports menu, then enter Journal in the Search field.
2. Set the reporting date.
3. Click the journal entry in question.
4. Edit the number in the Journal no. field.
5. Hit on Save.
