Hi Mary

If you are getting the message that processes are being run and you cannot see any processes in the process monitor in the local queue, there is a possibility that you could have a Visual Studio .Net Addin DLL running in your system that accesses a Dexterity table buffer, but does not close it when finished.

This is a situation that will make Dexterity believe there is a background process even though it does not show in the process monitor.

Regards

David

Thanks for all that good information.

It always helps to run these scripts with no one in GP.

SELECT * FROM DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY

SELECT * FROM DYNAMICS..SY00800

SELECT * FROM DYNAMICS..SY00801

SELECT * FROM TEMPDB..DEX_SESSION

SELECT * FROM TEMPDB..DEX_LOCK

DELETE DYNAMICS..ACTIVITY

DELETE DYNAMICS..SY00800

DELETE DYNAMICS..SY00801

DELETE TEMPDB..DEX_SESSION

DELETE TEMPDB..DEX_LOCK

Thank you - I had to fix the batch record for the transactions that were causing this error. There was no lock but I had to delete a batch record in the SYS00800 table. Then she was able to pull up the batch again and post it.

Thanks - I reset the sy00500 record to available and it finally worked

She is trying to exit GP while something is running. Running process monitor will tell you what is running. If she were to login to GP and immediately try to exit she will get this message.

Actually I am not getting this message a business user is - but yes she is free to exit. I had her remote desktop session killed and I removed her session in GP. I'm having her try it again and see if she is still getting this message.

So you are free to exit GP. When did you see this message? Running historical trial balance reports can cause this as they take a while to run.

I don't see any any processes running in the process monitor.

Click on MS Dynamics GP and then Process Monitor to see what processes are running. When you first login to GP there are a series of processes that will run. If they never end you have no choice but to use Task Manager to terminate GP.
