    Hi,

    Please check the number sequence which is setup for the Journals (General ledger parameters "Journal Batch Number")

    If this is set to continuous, you can review the List if there are numbers set as free which are already used. Then delete these numbers.

    Actually this number sequence can be used without being continuous. Then this problem will not happen as it alsways will draw a new number then.

    Open the number sequence for Journal batch number, Open the Status list of the number sequence and delete all the active, locked and unused numbers. 

    Then generate the new journal and it will work.

    We were getting the same error while users were trying to Create and Post journal entries in AP, AR and GL modules. I was able to resolve this by Compiling and Synchronizing the following tables and form.

    Compiled and Synchronized the tables

    LedgerJournalTable

    LedgerJournalTrans

    Compiled the form

    Ledgerjournaltable

    Everyone was able to create and post journals after this. For one person I had to RESET the Usage Data and Clear CACHE by deleting the *.AUC files in \APPDATA folder.
