A user was setting up new payroll posting accounts in the Payroll Posting screen and another user ran the Build Check process in Payroll. This gave an error for the user setting up accounts and the Check File Report had the critical message of 'Posting account is not set up for benefit payable'. The posting accounts were set up for ALL in the Department and specific codes for the Position and Code. The error does not appear is ALL and ALL is used for both Department and Position.

The users have since removed the build in payroll and deleted and re-entered all the benefit payable posting accounts. The error still occurs.

There are a few articles on deleting work tables, etc. but not sure if this applies.

Thank you, Leslie. The ALL, ALL, ALL account was setup. The issue ended up fixing itself. The user removed the build again, worked on some other transaction and when she built the batch again the error did not appear again.

I appreciate your help.

Hi Teri,

I doubt that deleting data from the work tables will do anything for you. The problem is that one of the combinations being used by one of your employees is not handled in the Payroll Posting Account Setup. The easiest way to find this is to put the 'ALL, ALL, ALL' option in and then run payroll. The posting account assigned to the ALL ALL ALL option should be a suspense account of some kind. After the payroll run, you will be able to go to that suspense account, find out which transaction was creating the issue and then resolve it for going forward.

Kind regards,

Leslie
