An "unposted transaction" is a transaction involving Accounts whose Trial Balances have not yet been updated with the transaction information. Unposted transactions exist in a kind of limbo state. They are posted to the General Ledger (G/L), but not yet to the Trial Balance.

Thawing and/or opening closed Periods is one method for correcting this situation; offsetting G/L journal entries may also be used.
