extender problems

Posted on by 45

Last year we implemented GP with Extender so that we could have a longer GL description.    We discontinued its use for various reasons and stopped entering information on or about January 1, 2012.    We are now using the standard GL Distribution Reference.     Since January 1 the reports have been printing with the GL Dist Reference only (nothing in the Long Description) since no data has been entered in the Long Descriptions since the first of the year.    A few days ago some erroneous data showing up all of a sudden on the Trial Balance Report.    

 

When I inquired back on these transactions, either GL or AP, there wasn’t an Extender field associated with it.     Our implementation person thinks it it related to information that was keyed into the extender fields prior to the discontinuation. I’m wondering if an integer value or key field reference is getting mixed up and pulling from an old transaction from last year?     This is also happening to at least one more report (The Check Distribution report) where we have no Extender entries for 2012 but they are appearing on the report.    This has just started to happen. Can anyone offer assistance in identifying how this information is appearing and why?

    Denise,

    The best thing here would be just remove all the extender data. You can do this by reinstalling the module. Email me and I will send you the scripts as they are pretty lengthy. Jfear@microsoft.com
