GL batch possible partial post issue - where did the transactions go?

Posted on by 69

I have a user who posted a recurring JE with 5 transactions in March.  The General Posting Journal (GL) shows only 1 of the 5 transactions, but the full amount of the batch for all 5 transactions. The journal entries have rolled forward to the next month, April. The user uses the same JE numbers and batch id each month. Is this best practice? The user tried to attach a doc to one of the transactions, it replicated to the past months since it is the same JE #. He tried to delete it. The 4 transactions that are not showing on the report appear to have a doc attach, not sure this is relevant. As he stated he had some issues in the prior months. His statement regarding that is here: “One item to note that I completely forgot about until I saw your detail is I had a minor issue with this journal entry when I was booking February. I changed some of the values of rents in February, but I forgot to change the credit going to accrued liabilities so when I tried to post, it went to batch recovery (because the journal entry did not balance). The other 4 journal entries posted, but only the rents did not post in February. I ended up doing a manual journal entry to make up for it. For March only the rents posted, but the other 4 did not. I feel like there is a strong correlation there.”

 

I created the ‘View Posted GL Trx’ from Victoria Yudin’s site (TY Victoria). The missing transactions from March do not show up in this view, nor the GL20000 table.

They are not in the GL10000 or GL 10001 tables. Where else can I look? Where might they be? What do we need to do to straighten this mess out? Any help is much appreciated!

    Hi there,

    As Adam mentioned if you find that the data is truly lost in the GL tables, then we would suggest a manual JE to get that corrected.  Then try a new recurring batch from this point going forward, to ensure it works as expected. This is something that we would recommend that you try in your TEST company to ensure that things are working as expected there before you attempt in Production.

    Thanks,

    Thank you for your response. I appreciate the information. JE 82984, the one in the attached report, is the only transaction showing in the GL20000 for March. The report states 5 transactions and a total of $72,118.04 yet there is only that single entry listed of $2155.77.  There are 4 other transactions that make up that total and are the 4 that appear to be missing. I do not see the 4 missing transactions in the GL10000/1, only the new April ones. Do the report totals actually show posted totals, or is this a calculated field from something else? I have no idea what happened to the 4 other transactions. We are currently using our dev environments for a third-party implementation but I may have to interrupt that project.

    Is re-entering the missing March transactions and posting a bad idea?

    Hello-

    Thank you for submitting your question on the Forums.  Yes, you would use the same batch ID and JE numbers in a recurring batch.  The RCTRXSEQ number should increment each time in the GL20000 table.  The recurring journal entry should exist in both the GL20000 once it is initially posted and also in the GL10000/1 tables for the upcoming period.  

    The JE number in your screenshot is a but fuzzy, but if you query those tables on it(82984?) do you not get any results?  If not, I would suggest starting over with a new recurring batch in your TEST company and post the first period.  Then verify the data exists in these tables as expected.  If not, you will want to open a support case so an engineer can take a closer look.

    If the data is truly lost in the GL tables, I would suggest a manual JE to get that corrected.  Then try a new recurring batch from this point going forward once you confirm it works in TEST.  Let us know if you have any questions.  Have a great day!
