Edit an account in your chart of accounts

The Chart of Accounts page is only available on the web version of Wave.

For some created accounts, it’s not possible to edit the account type or currency. Some accounts can also only be changed to other account types.

If you accidentally create an account under the wrong type and cannot change it, create a new account under the correct type. Move any transactions over, if applicable. Once complete, you can archive the old account.

To edit an account:

  1. On the left-side menu, click Accounting > Chart of Accounts.
  2. Locate the account.
  3. At the far right of the account, click the pencil icon.
  4. Edit the details.
  5. Click Save.
