Hello everyone,

I'm trying to execute the Adjust Exchange Rate process and I'm getting the following error:

Generic record type must not be, in the general journal line Journal book name =, Journal section name =, Line number = 0

Could anyone help me understanding this error and its solution? I'm working with W1 version, Business Central on premise V13.

Thank you! Regards!

Valeria,

What Country Version are you using for BC or is this generic W1? Have you tested Adjust Exchange Rate in CRONUS Sandbox for this version? The reason I ask is I have tested in my version US v18 and no issues. The message seems like a Record Type is being set in code and not correct, which also says a possible APP is effecting this.

Thanks,

Steve

Hello Steven, I tried without any extensions installed and the error still remains.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advanced!

Valeria,

This message appears when your G/L Account has a General Posting Type set. Look at what G/L Accounts you have setup for the Currencies you are using. Open the G/L Account and check the if you have setup a General Posting Type for the account. Make sure its blank.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Steve

Dear Steve, I've had the same error as Valerie and tried to do what you suggested but it didn't solve the error. When wanting to run Adjust Exchange Rates for my Vendors I get the Preview, but when I click Post I get the same error as Valerie: Gen. posting Type must not be in Gen. Journal Line Journal Template Name=", Journal Batch Name=", Line No.,='0'. I've checked in my Chart of Accounts all 4 FX Accounts that are set up have a blank Gen. Posting Type and also in the GL Account Card both Gen. posting Type and Gen. Bus. or Prod. Posting Group is blank. Any other suggestions? Thx upfront, Finance Manager Szilvia

Szilvia,

Check the Vendor AP account for the Vendors effected by FX. This could be the offset GL Account that is generating the message.

Thanks,

Steve
