Hi,

I am in the process of closing the month of August and have two batches that we are unable to post through Master Posting. We receive the error message below. Can you please help us understand what the issue is and how we can correct it?

Error: You are trying to post a transaction to account 2350-2-0. You cannot post to this account since it is the Fund Account for fund.

Any help would be appreciated.

Deb

I found the issue, apparently these were some old transactions that were unposted before we upgraded. so post upgrade the account lines were in the distribution already, and were causing the error to trigger. once we deleted those rows, and posted, the interfund balancing kicked in and everything worked.

Michael - do you have the approval on the GL posting? It could be that when a transaction is created in e.g. AR or AP, it is getting to the GL posting and waiting for authorisation. If the interfund accounts have populated at that point, it may be seeing them as having been entered on the transaction.

Can you try testing this without an approver step to try and isolate if it is the approval that is causing the issue?

some additional info, we create entries, have an approver enter a password to approve, and then post the entry. no errors occur when the entry is created, only when posting is attempted.

I'm having a similar issue, we have interfund management set up so that the interfund accounts will autopopulate to balance between the entities, and disallow anyone from keying to them. nobody is keying to the account, but we are getting the error when trying to post the entry. I'm not sure how else this is supposed to work?

Hi Deb,

This is because Interfund Management is set up and the account 2350-2-0 is included in the setup.

You can check this by going to Dynamics GP > Tools > Setup > Financial > Interfund Management.

In this window, you will find a list of nominals and on the left hand list you will probably find the account in question listed next to the fund number that is mentioned at the end of the error message.

I tested this by setting it up myself and posting a test

1. In the setup I added an account

2. I then tried to post a General Journal to the nominal on the left hand side (000-2210-00)

As you can see, fund 00 in the first screenshot is the fund that the nominal I can't post to is allocated.

So, you'll need to decide whether Interfund Management should be enabled? Should that account be assigned to that fund? Are you posting the transaction to the right distributions?

Unfortunately I can't answer those questions for you, something for you to consider!

Kind Regards,

Jamie
