Payables Transaction Entry - Adding Tax Errors Out

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I just upgraded from GP 2013 to GP 2016R2. On the Payables Transaction Entry window, if I add tax then click the arrow in the field I receive a generic error pop-up "Wrong number of arguments to 'Child_Box'".

If I then try to click the magnifying glass by Tax Detail ID on the following screen I get

Unhandled script exception:
Object has no reference.

EXCEPTION_CLASS_SCRIPT_BAD_PARAM
SCRIPT_CMD_DEREF_FIELD

Any ideas? I've tried disabling all customizations (Tools-->Customize-->Customization Status) but that didn't seem to help.

    I tested the exact scenario you described and was not able to reproduce this issue on any of the versions from GP 2015 to GP 2018.

    Do you have any forms dictionary (forms.dic) by any chance? Could you try renaming it temporarily and see if the problem go away? You will need to exit GP to rename your forms dictionary.

    If that doesn't work, you will need to enable a Script.log to see which script is failing, but we can cross that bridge whenever you get back with the results of the first suggestion.

    Thank you for the quick reply sir! Ended up solving the issue. Turns out it was an Alternative/Modified Forms and Reports window. I use BinaryStream's ARED addon. With that selected in Alternative/Modified Forms and reports - Payables Transaction Entry, I was receiving the error but if I selected MS Dynamics GP, I was fine. Confirmed with BinaryStream that I'm using the appropriate ARED version for 2016R2, must just be a bug in their software.

    Thanks!
