Lines Vanishing from Transaction Entry Window

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have a client that was entering a GL Journal Entry at the Transaction Entry Window. This was a payables entry with one Credit to Payables and several debits to expense accounts. When he went to post, he received an error message saying that his Debits and Credits didn't balance.

He called me and I noticed that the Credit Entry did not appear in the Transaction Entry Window. Oddly, it still showed a Credit Total that was equal to the amount he claimed to have entered. I had him make a line for the credit, but the Credit total doubled when he did so.

I assumed this was user error, deleted the transaction, and had him re-enter the transaction. The second time it went through without error. But he just called me, and it happened again with a Debit (still counting towards totals, still not showing among the other transactions).

Has anyone else seen this before? Any idea if this is somehow user error or if it is a glitch in GP?

    This SQL script did work but we were never able to find out what the issue was. He had saved the Trx to a batch while waiting for me to find out how to fix it, and it seems saving it to the batch erased the missing lines. It has not happened since then.

    Since you had him re-entering the transaction with no errors, I would suspect this is an error that would result from certain user behavior. I have never seen such a case in which Dynamics GP deleting lines without user interference. Therefore, I would suggest you run the following script once this error is reported next time before trying any attempt to solve it from the application layer. Hope this helps !

    - - - -  The script below will provide a detailed and Grand Total view for the selected Journal Entry

    USE #DBName
    SELECT    
            ISNULL(CONVERT(NVARCHAR (32),BACHNUMB),'ALL') AS BachNumber,    
            ISNULL(CONVERT(NVARCHAR (32),JRNENTRY),'ALL') AS JournalEntry,
            ISNULL(CONVERT(NVARCHAR (32),ACTINDX),'ALL') AS Account_Index,    
            ISNULL(CONVERT(NVARCHAR (32),DEBITAMT),'ALL') AS Debit,         
            ISNULL(CONVERT(NVARCHAR (32),CRDTAMNT),'ALL') AS Credit,        
            SUM(DEBITAMT) AS Dr_Total,
            SUM(CRDTAMNT) AS Cr_Total
            FROM GL10001
            WHERE    JRNENTRY = '#JournalEntryNumber'
            GROUP BY BACHNUMB,JRNENTRY,ACTINDX,DEBITAMT,CRDTAMNT WITH ROLLUP
            HAVING            GROUPING(BACHNUMB) = 1   
                          AND GROUPING(ACTINDX)  = 1    
                          AND GROUPING(DEBITAMT) = 1    
                          AND GROUPING(CRDTAMNT) = 1
                    OR
                              GROUPING(BACHNUMB) <> 1   
                          AND GROUPING(ACTINDX)  <> 1    
                          AND GROUPING(DEBITAMT) <> 1    
                          AND GROUPING(CRDTAMNT) <> 1

    Your feedback is highly appreciated in order to dig for further details if required.

    He is using GP 2010, version 11.00.1799 if that helps.
