Labor Entries not posted to GL

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello.

We are trying to close an Accounting Period in SL. Error message is - "5 Labor Entries are not posted to GL".

We have gone back to the GL Labor Posting Screen for all 5 companies and there is nothing to post.

Any assistance on how we can resolve this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

    We've had this happen to us about once a month. Are there any indications for what would cause an invalid or blank field? Multiple employees will have the same entries, yet only one employee seems to be missing data.

    update pjlabdis set dl_id05 = '0000', home_subacct = '998000000' where status_gl = 'U' and fiscalno = '201604'

    update pjlabdis set cpnyid_home = 'BGC', home_subacct = '998000000' where status_gl = 'U' and fiscalno = '201604'

    These scripts accomplished our database field errors and we were able to close the period! Thanks Stacie!

    Darren,

    You can run an update stmt in SQL.    Are you familiar with SQL update statements?    

    If yes,   here is a sample statement

    update pjlabdis set cpnyid_home =cpnyid_chrg, home_subacct = 'XXXXXXX' where status_gl = 'U' and fiscalno = '201604' and cpnyid_home = ''

    --replace the 'XXXXXX' with the appropriate subacct

    Use  Begin Transaction and commit or rollback.    Make sure you have a current backup.

    If you need help with the correction you can phone me at 636.898.8141

    201605 ASP       ASP       5010       230SCPCAT              

    201604           BGC       6025       230000000              

    It looks like you are correct, the top line is a normal posting with company "ASP".  The second line is the troubled entry, which doesn't have a home company or home subaccount.  How do we enter into the database?

    Something on the pjlabdis records is not allowing the gl labor posting to pick up  the transactions.    invalid or blank field,   invalid acct/sub combo,  etc.    Maybe someone went in and set a subaccount to inactive.

    run the following query and post or email the results.   

    select fiscalno, cpnyid_home, cpnyid_chrg, gl_acct, gl_subacct, home_subacct,* from pjlabdis where status_gl = 'U'

    Appreciate the time - we did review the time card and it appears ok.  We did a correction and resubmittal and posted which appeared to post.  But now it's saying 3 labor entries not posted.  So it added the correction and new time card to the errors.  All fields appear to be correct.  Any further advice?

    Hi Darren,

    Make note of the fiscalno that was returned from the select query.     Then in SL >  T&E > Processes,   Run the GL Labor Posting for that period.       

    If the the transaction still isn't moved to GL,   the most common reasons are invalid or blank cpnyid_home or cpnyid_chrg fields,  invalid  GL_acct, gl_subacct or home_subacct fields.

    Thanks so much Stacie -

    We were able to use that and locate one record that shows "posted" but one line item on the time card is not showing up on the gl distribution and hanging us up from close.  Any thoughts on how to push this through?

    Sincerely,

    Darren

    Hi Darren,

    Run the following to identify

    select  fiscalno, employee, docnbr, * from PJLABDIS
    where  status_gl = 'U'

    Thanks,

    Stacie
