Hi,

We have MS Dynamics AX 2012 R3 CU8, We are trying to close year 2017.

The fiscal year close parameters into the "General Ledger Parameters" as follow:

While trying to transfer the opening balances by using the "Opening transactions" form we got the below error message.

Then we received a notification message "The batch job Rebuild balances completed successfully"

I though that the error message is due to rounding setup so I amended it but now I am trying to transfer the opening balances again but unfortunately I am getting a warning message "The fiscal year that ends with the date 12/31/2017 is already closed".

Now I am not able to transfer the opening balance to 2018 so please advise!!

Hello Peter,

Please check solution no. 3656289 on LCS.

https://fix.lcs.dynamics.com/Issue/Details?bugId=3656289&qc=2586c54c1f391f20857083286ff0458ddb2bef12db92ba1a9ec4e1c2c447ca89

There it says

Problem: When running the year end close process AX2012 R3 throws an error message "Total of the transactions in the year is not 0.00. Total is#####. This is a serious error. Run \"Check\" on ledger transactions" . This only occurred if an account has Opening account in the main account setup.

Mitigation: If the Delete close-of-year transactions during transfer check box is selected in the General ledger parameters form, opening transactions and system-generated closing transactions that exist for the year to be closed are deleted when the transfer is processed again in the Opening transactions form.

Best regards,

Ludwig

Hi Mahmoud,

The closing period "Period 13" status is "Closed" as shown below.

According to the Fiscal Year Close parameters, we checked "Set Period status to year closed" which require all the fiscal period of the year to be closed.

Our financial manager changed all the periods status of 2017 manually to be "Closed" including the closing period "Period 13".

Hi Ludwig,

I had seen your reply into another post with the same solution but actually I didn't try it where according to the procedure I mentioned above, now I am not able to run the "Opening Transactions" form. I am getting a warning message "The fiscal year that ends with the date 12/31/2017 is already closed".

Do you mean uncheck "Delete close-of-year transactions during transfer" may solve this warning message too?

Hello Peter,

Can you check

(a) whether the previous year transactions are already closed as indicated in the message?

(b) If the process runs through if you also uncheck the 'set fiscal year status to closed' parameter?

Best regards,

Ludwig

Hello,

Something i don't get, if you have your periods already closed then how are you going to write any transaction in the same fiscal year.

Therefore the 1st and the 3rd checkbox should be unchecked from the GL parameters form.

Note that the 1st checkbox would remove the transaction what would be created while closing expenses and revenues if checked, recommended to be unchecked for reference and history

Thank you,

Hi Peter Samir

From your parameter screen, Third check box is enabled, according to my knowledge it is used if we want to close the year permanently which can not be reopened. I think due to this reason you are unable to re-close this year. I think you should discuss this matter with your developers to change the status of year.

Kindly Correct me if i am wrong.

Faisal

Hi Peter Samir

As per your attached, period closed and no way to post any transaction in a closed period.

IN TEST SERVER, try to open the closed period by a developer and complete your transaction.

after checking in the test,

if ok then apply on live
