Why is the amount field locked in Configure file?

Last updated on Sep 29, 2026

Short Answer: The modal shows: 'This amount column is locked because this report already exists in the saved reconciliation.' The amount column cannot be changed in this draft.

PreRequisites

  1. Open the 'Configure file' modal for the affected file.

Steps

  1. Open the relevant 'Configure file' modal Side A or Side B.
    You can see the 'amount' area and any explanatory text.

  2. Read the message under 'amount' which explains why it is locked.
    You see the exact message: 'This amount column is locked because this report already exists in the saved reconciliation.'

  3. If you require a different amount column, consider using a file that contains the desired column, or update the saved reconciliation/report where that report exists. Contact Support if you need assistance.
    You understand that the mapping cannot be changed in the current draft.

Troubleshooting

  1. Amount dropdown is disabled/greyed out.
    LikelyCause: The amount column is locked because the same report exists in the saved reconciliation.
    Action: Use a different file that contains the amount column you need, or edit the saved reconciliation/report where that report exists; contact Support for help.
