Hi:

This error message occurs upon clicking “Correct…Correct” for a Posted Purchase Invoice but not upon clicking “Correct…Create Corrective Credit Memo”. (The client is interested in successfully clicking “Correct…Correct”.)

I have tried all of the remedies dictated in articles online. But, nothing is working.

How do I get rid of this error?

Thanks!

John

Hi

Please go to General Posting Setup and set something like this up. That should solve the problem. But refer to what Kim's mentioned in your other post.

Actually, if you leave Gen. Prod. Posting Group blank, you get an error.

Yes, I tried the other solutions like I said. No dice.

That is strange. Can you look into last known error and see if it provides more info?

Also, check to see if in General Posting you have populated all purchasing account.

Hi, This is because "Correct...Correct" automatically creates and posts a new Purchase Credit memo, then creates a new Purchase Invoice.
"Correct...Create Corrective Credit Memo" will only create a new Purchase Credit memo, not post it. This problem only occurs when posting.

There is no problem with MahGah's suggestion, this requires checking the posting group settings.

But before that, you also need to check the Posting Group settings for the Master data. For example, vendor, item, etc...

If it is still difficult to find the problem, it is recommended to debug, you can immediately find the data of the problem.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Hi john.ellis ,

Just visit to the same Item/GL Account/Fixed Asset card whichever you are taking for posting, and check if you have already mentioned Gen. prod. Posting group in that card, fill it up there, dont leave blank, because if you will try to create Gen. Posting setup without mentioning Prod. Posting group field in the setup it will give you an error, I tried, may be its an issue there.

After you fill up your relevant card, just come back to that invoice and delete that line and revalidate again.

Check above remedy if you all your problem solved.

Thanks.

Thanks, Nitin! This resolved the error.

I went to the G/L account that was in the Line of the invoice and filled in the Gen. Prod. Posting Group. After posting, I was able to successfully click "Correct...Correct".

Thank you, so much!!!

John
