    This occurs because many of the fields on a Transaction are very dependent on a) other fields on the transaction and b) other items in the database.

    Account
    Where the account is greyed out, this is usually because there is no alternative for the type of transaction. If you need to change the type of transaction, there is no alternately to deleting the incorrect one and adding a new one of the correct type. Sometimes the account is greyed out because that account is attached to your login name. This happens with Bank and Cash accounts. You can change these in Preferences if you have the necessary privileges in your Role. Ask your Administrator.
    Member (Contact) & Acitivty
    These are greyed out for transactions such as Account Transfer. In this situation, there is no actual Member (Contact) involved in the transaction. So the Member is set to you yourself and the Activity is set to "Account Transfer".
    Bank Statement Number
    The Bank Statement Number can be changed on all transactions except those where the transaction is entered before the Bank Statement appears. This is true for most cheques written and payins. The Bank Statement number for these transactions is entered in Reconciliation, frequently all unreconciled transactions can be dealt with at once with Automatic Reconciliation once the Bank Statement has been received. Just enter the Statement Number and press Auto-Reconcile and all outstanding transactions will be given the Statement Number. If any of those don't appear on the Statement, enter Manual reconcilation, press "Show Reconciled" and Unreconcile the transactions not on that statement.
