Hi Qiu,
When you change a setting in MYOB, it does not change existing transactions, it only applies to new transactions.
Recap Transaction is a misleading feature in MYOB when looking at an existing transaction - it does not show how the transaction was recorded, but rather shows how it would be recorded if you processed now.
So what you will need to do is put the settings back as they were when the transaction was recorded, then reverse or delete the transaction. Fix the settings, then record the transaction again the way it should be. If this is not an option in your situation, the earlier transactions should be corrected via a general journal etc - discuss with your bookkeeper or accountant.
