Transaction Entry

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

During the course of the month we have financial batches the fail. At the end of the month I spend nearly an entire day either updating the TRANSACTION DATE, or the ACCOUNT NUMBER or both to get the batch to run. I cannot figure out how to get these to clear without hanging up. 

I understand this may not be fully clear. I am not sure exactly how to explain this. I need to update the TRANSACTION DATE in the example below to 1/1/2022 to get it to clear. It wouldn't be so bad if there were a couple, but I have to work through hundreds of transactions consuming an entire day. Anyone have any ideas how to get these to clear?

    RE: Transaction Entry

    I agree with Richard.  Definitely print the edit list to see if it gives you any clues.

    [A date difference between 12/31/2021 and 01/01/2020 could simply be a User Date/Posting Date process that needs to be corrected to account for timing differences between an entry being created and the date it is for.]

    The Reference in your screenshot looks like it could be coming from an add-in product or someone is using a reference system that could point back to the source of the problematic transactions.  [Do you see patterns in the references/types of transactions that are requiring correction that could also provide a clue.  If these entries are coming from a subsidiary ledger, changing them before posting could be creating out of balances that will be a reconciliation nightmare.]

    [I have a few clients who use Integration Manager for JE imports and end up with orphaned lines in the GL Transaction Line table, but never invalid ones that are visible in the Transaction Entry window.]

    You appear to have a serious problem here. Does this happen on all your workstations? If you print the edit list does it reflect these errors? You cannot save a transaction without  dates and account numbers so there must be something more to this story. Do you have any customizations or third-party products?
