Change Decimal Places in Inventory Setup

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

When I attempt to change the Price/Cost Decimal Places from 2 to 6 I get a System Message 6653 - Decimal Place cannot be changed while unreleased AR Batches exist.  I have posted all the AR Batches and still get the same message. I'm not sure where else to look for a record that might be causing this message.

Thanks,

Stefan

    Mark,

    That was it!  I had one batch with a status of 'D' which didn't make sense since I read where delete is usually used to update the db and that would not have been the case for that batch.  I changed it to 'V' and I was able to update the decimal places.

    Thanks,

    Stefan

    Try this instead:

    select batnbr, editscrnnbr, module, status, perpost from Batch where Status not in ('P','U','C') and module = 'AR'

    This should give you any AR batches that are not Posted, Unposted, or Completed.  Might be a batch out there that is in some other status that needs attention.

    Mark,

    Your select statement did show a few batches with a status of 'Hold' but none were AR related.  I did post them all the way through the GL but still receive the same message when I try to change the decimal places value for Price\Cost.

    Thanks,

    Stefan

    When you say "posted" do you mean posted to the GL?  This message doesn't have to do with GL batch posting, but that there is a least one AR Batch that has not been released in the AR module.  Try this query:

    select batnbr, editscrnnbr, status, perpost from Batch where Status in ('H','B','S')

    This will tell you the Batch Nbr, the screen it was entered in, the batch status and the period to post.

    Or, you can look in the Release AR Batches screen to see any Balanced or Suspended AR Batches (but you won't see any that are on Hold).
