Changing posting date of an inventory counting journal

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2,654

Hi All,

A user has posted an inventory count journal with the wrong posting date.

I have written a few scripts to address the various affected dates across an array of tables:

InventJournalTrans

InventTrans

InventTransPosting

SubLedgerVoucherGeneralJournalEntry

GeneralJournalEntry

I am pretty confident all relevant dates have been modified correctly at a transactional level.

However, the related financial voucher that was posted, even though I have updated the accountingDate values, the balances in the ledger accounts are not correctly updated even when a calculate balance function runs.

Is there anything I can do to ensure the new dates and the associated values are reflected in the ledger balances?

This is still only in a test environment but the client needs a live resolution ASAP

I have mentioned using a movement journal to reverse the count on the same posting date then repeat the count again with the correct count values at the correct date, but this is plan B for them.

Can someone please advise how I can get the ledger balances to reflect the changes made?

Thanks

    Hi Kauto,

    Your script is not supported by Microsoft and in many countries you are not allowed to change posted transactions. Have you verified this action with the auditors?

    I would recommend plan B anyway!

    Hi,

    Actually I think I have resolved it with a rebuild of balances in the financial dimension set.

    The new values are reflected correctly by date.

    Thanks
