The journal balance is nil. but when I perform a post or post preview it says it is out by one entry £1236.95. Removing that entry creates an unbalanced journal. including it creates the error on post. Copy to Journal lines is activated so is copy VAt lines.

any ideas folks!!

The column "Bal. Account No." is empty it should have a value e.g. Bank Account No.

Journals in BC are balanced by the posting date and document number. I'd first check to see if there are different document no.s in that batch.

The error is also saying it's out of balance because of a global dimension. This usually signifies you may have a customization or extension such as a multi-entity solution in your environment. Some apps make it so Business Central needs to have entries posted to balance on global dimension 1. I'd check to see if you have any apps installed.

You can quickly check to see if you have an app installed by inspecting that page (Alt+Ctrl+F1) and then looking at the extensions tab to see if there is an app in the system from an ISV (Central Path, Binary Streams, your partner etc.)

If you still have issues, when in doubt just copy that journal and paste it into a new batch and try again. There might even be some validation issues.

Best,
