Hello:
In a multicurrency (Canadian) company in GP 2010, an end user of ours posted fixed assets data to the general ledger.
This created a journal entry where one of the posting accounts shows up on the edit list but not in the journal entry itself.
Too, in this journal entry, the amounts that appear in the edit list for this account were absorbed into other accounts. You see this, when you pull up the journal entry in the Transaction Entry window and in SmartList.
What's even more strange is that this account appearing on the edit list did not show on the fixed assets posting report that printed when the posting from fixed assets was conducted! And, this account is not in any of the fixed assets account groups.
It had to have been in the account groups at one time, though, because this user said that back in October she did a similar posting and this account was in both the edit list and the Transaction Entry window along with SmartList.
Now, this account (in the Select Account Currencies) was not "set" to post to any currency other than the default functional Canadian currency. So, I checked "USD" for the currency, since the other accounts in this journal entry are coded to USD.
Of course, since the journal entry is set to post to the Canadian currency ID anyway, that's a moot point.
I've never seen this behavior before. Any ideas?
Thanks!
John

I solved the mystery! This phantom account was a Distribution Account within a Fixed Allocation Account! :)
