Dear Justin,
It should write to the event log in the Administration module, There should also be the allocation processor messages report. And as you have already mentioned a communicator email...I'll look at that by the way, as it sounds like it should be sending more information. You can always go into allocator and process By Batch mode, put in the fiscal period, Module (System code) TM and F3 for a batch number. Then run it in Final mode, if there is a problem , it will give you a preview and an error. If there is nothing to allocate it will tell you and then it will delete the batch (in final mode)
The records are all held in a table called pjtranwk. We have a KB that you can visit and download the report.

SYMPTOMS
When you try to close the period or the year in Project Controller in Microsoft Dynamics SL, you receive the following error message:
Unposted Allocations in Current or Prior Period
CAUSE
This problem occurs because batches of allocations that must be processed exist in the PJTranWk table.
RESOLUTION

Download the PA450C.rpt custom report that will show the unposted allocation batches. The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Dynamics File Exchange Server:
