GP 10 Syncing GL00100 and GL0105

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 510

We use a 3rd party Budgeting/Reporting system, Prophix and it pulls the GL data direct from GP's SQL server back end.  Prohix uses the table GL00105 which is the GL_Account_Index_MSTR to build the account segments into a single account number.  This table is not in sync with GL00100 which is the GL_Account_MSTR.

It there a routine in GP to sync the master with the index master?  If not is it safe to make update thru SQL or to update manually?

 

Thanks

    Truitt, have you run Check Links yet on the Account Master tables?  That would be my first step.  I definitely would not update via SQL.  How many records do you have out of sync?

    Frank, there are 452 records in GL00105 where the ACTNUMBR_3 segment does not match the GL00100 table and the total record number for each table is the same.  I have not run Check Links on the Account Master tables yet.

    They should be writing to the GL00100 not the GL00105 table. Assuming the GL00100 has the correct accounts, you can then delete records out of the GL00105 table then run check links. This will make sure the GL00100,GL00105 and GL40200 tables are all in sync. Make sure you do a backup before attempting this.

    Richard,

    They are only reading from GL00105.  I'll try Check Links after hours.

    Thanks

    Truitt, the GL00100 is the master GL account master. Running check links on the GL Master table will recreate the GL00105 and GL40200 tables. You can check out this KB. It is best to empty the GL00105 and GL4020 table prior to running check links. After you run check links you will get  a lengthy report telling you all the additions that were just performed.

    So if they are reading the GL00105 you want to make sure it is in sync with the GL00100.

    Hi,

    One added piece of information, you can 'empty' the Account Index Master using Microsoft Dynamics GP > Maintnenance > Clear Data. Be sure to change Display to Physical so that you are dealing with an individual table instead of a table group.

    Richard,

    Why would we want to clear the Segment Description Master GL40200?

    Kind regards,

    Leslie

    I only suggested the GL40200 to clean away any bad records. If that table is clean then there is no need to empty that table. I have a customization for clients that populates new companies with a standard chart of accounts. I use that routine to populate the GL00100 and then check links takes care of the GL00105 and GL40200 tables.

    I need to delete accounts from the GL00100 account. what other tables do I need to delete from so that when I run Check Links, they don't reappear?

    You can delete records out of the GL00105 and GL40200. If you then delete records out of the GL00100 table Check Links will rebuild the GL00105 and GL40200. Now you should not be deleting any records out of the GL00100 table if any transactions have been posted to those accounts. Make a backup before you do anything or better yet have a test company until you are sure you have achieved the desired results.

    Thanks, Richard!  I did delete one account out of the GL00100 and then out of the GL00105. When I run "check links," I get an error message that says acctindx  xxxxxx needs to be recreated. How do I resolve so that I do not get that error message in the future
