Master Posting error

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

My client have upgraded recently to GP 2016 and we are facing the following problem. When an inventory transfer transaction is done and posted the system automatically creates a batch in the General Transaction Entry in the financial module. Then usually they post the batch from the master posting but an error is coming up (that an edit is required before posting). When we open up the transaction we found that all transaction are without the account and so posting is not possible.

Can someone please help me out why the account is not being populated like before?

Thanks and regards,

    This is certainly not the activity you should be seeing. Even if the GL accounts are the same, a correct journal entry should be generated.

    You don't have any VB running around transfers, or other custom software that could be interfering. at this stage you probably need to get someone to debug what is happening on your system.

    Yes the stock have the same accounts.

    I have done that when clicking the distributions button the correct accounts are visible. But when I go on the transaction window for some reason the accounts are lost.

    These are transfer transactions  - from one site to another, with no change in Unit cost.

    Do the stock sites share the same GL Inventory account code?

    Can you post a test transaction (or another live one), but this time, before posting click the 'Distributions' window. Are there GL Accounts listed here? Are they correct?

    Basically I do the below transfer entry and then post it from here and when I go to post the journal entry of it there are no accounts as shown before

    Strange. Looks like its created a zero amount GL transaction. Could you post a screen shot of the original Inv. transaction?

    Also - check the set up as suggested in last post to rule it in/out as a cause.

    The exact error massage is - "Transaction Error - Edit Required"

    The accounts missing are these highlighted below:

    Hi - not sure what would / could have changed just because you upgraded. But perhaps someone manually made a change around the same time? I would start with checking the Item set up - Cards >> Inventory >> Item.. call up the item and check its Accounts. Make sure the item in question has accounts defaulted. If none, then check Tools >> Setup >> Posting >> Posting Accounts.

    In the batch edit list, what s the exact error message? If you look at the report for a specific transaction, which account type is missing - Inventory or Offset?
