3. Add a new line

-- Under its Account column, select the same account shown in the original lines of the rev rec schedule.
-- Under its Posting Period column, select the same period (e.g.  Jan  2014).
-- Under its Amount column, enter $500.

4. Click Save

5. Go to Transactions > Financial > Create Revenue Recognition Journal Entries.

6. In the Posting Period field, select period (Jan 2014) and enter 01/15/2014 in the Journal Entry Date.
