This feature request is raised on behalf of a few publishers. 

Area Impacted:

Royalties

Request Summary: 

Where historic sales data is wrong, and there either needs to be a change in the cumulative totals, an adjustment to the balances owed (that does not then appear on the statement), or something similar, it would be great if there was a way of making changes in the system that don't then appear in the new statements. 

Impact of limitation or missing feature:

At the moment, the only way to adjust any of the data in the system is with an adjustment - this appears on new statements and for some agents / payees this can be an issue.

This also applies for rights acquired - where total sales history is needed for either royalties calculation of reporting, but there is no longer the ability to set the opening balances in the traditional way.
