General Journal Posting

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 164

Hi All,

I am trying to post a general journal between two banks one in a foreign currency and one in CAD.

The journal has three lines, one for each bank account and one for a general ledger account for exchange difference when I post I am getting an error:

"Gen. Posting Type must not be in Gen. Journal Line: Journal Template Name=GENERAL, Journal Batch Name=BANK TRSF, Line No.=40000"

I don't understand as the journal only has three lines????

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

John

    The joy of NAV's error-messages :-)

    Maybe this helps:
    Gen. Posting Type must not be blank in Gen. Journal Line:


    Maybe the last line is an "empty line"? It exists in the Database but without mandatory data (like amount etc.).

    Hi Hannes,

    Thanks but I tried creating a new entry as well as deleting the last line and it did not work....

    Pouj,

    Can you check the line numbers of all the lines ? Is there a line with Line No. 40000 ?
