# Reversing Transactions

****Marlin GTX**** enables reversing transactions to correct errors or undo completed processing.

This guide outlines how to perform each type of reversal, including:

- [Customer invoices](/gtx/docs/reversing#reversing-customer-invoices)
- [Payment receipts](/gtx/docs/reversing#reversing-customer-receipts)
- [Supplier payments](/gtx/docs/reversing#reversing-supplier-payments)
- [Delivery dockets](/gtx/docs/reversing#reversing-delivery-dockets)
- [Journal entries](/gtx/docs/reversing#reversing-journal-entries)
- [Bank reconciliations](/gtx/docs/reversing#reversing-bank-reconciliations)

Each process will open the relevant module, locate the original transaction and **create a reversal entry** to offset the original values.
