Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0: You can't choose this document because it is part of a recovered batch or is still in the process of posting.

One of my customers reported an issue this morning, they cannot apply a payment to its vendor invoice, the got the message shown below:

"You can't choose this document because it is part of a recovered batch or is still in the process of posting."image

Well, my fast "stupid!" answer to this was "Go to batch recovery and recover your batch from there", but when I thought about it, it couldn't be un-posted if it was here to be applied!

My next advise -following the book!- was to check-links and reconcile the vendor transactions, but again non of them resolved the issue, so I did further investigations and went through the database, the transactions that couldn't be applied posted by one user, and exists in both PM10000 and PM20000 which made me confused, as the posted transactions should only be in PM20000 and should not exist in PM10000.

It seems the issue with that user is sudden corruption for GP Dictionaries or lose in the connectivity between the client and the server, or it could be a spam that generates huge amount of requests that affects the pockets sent to the server or bla bla bla, it could be thousands.

The transactions will not be applied while it exists in the both tables, so it has to be deleted from the open transactions table "PM10000", with the following SQL Query:

DELETE FROM PM10000 WHERE VCHNUMWK = '07000000000003964'

Replace the text in RED with the voucher number you have, you could modify the query to delete all the transactions that exist in the PM20000 and PM10000, but it's for sure not safe.

If you been in this issue, you need to make sure that you following the following rules to get your system fixed:

1. Fix current transactions by running the above Query on all transaction that has the issue.

2. Do not post any transactions from the infected PC until fixing its problem.

3. Reinstall GP on that PC.

4. Validate that his PC is not infected with any spam's or viruses.

5. Make sure that the PC is properly connected to the network with no timeout returns in-between.

6. After finalizing all steps above, perform check-links on the database and reconcile your vendors to correct other affects for the changes you did.

Import Transactions Distributions Using Integration Manager

Another interesting question on the newsgroup, about importing transactions distributions using Integration Manager, I been in such issue where the distributions were not imported at all during the integration, after further investigations I found that the default value for Distribution Options integration was set to "Use Default" instead of "Use Source Recordset" as shown in the image below:

Integration Manager Customizations!

Guys,

Did you know that you can keep Microsoft Dynamics GP visible when running Integration created by Integration Manager and watch the transactions pushed inside GP windows a record after record?

This could be fact by turning "ShowDynamics=True" in Integration Manager INI file.

Purchase Order Entry "Inventory and Non-inventory Items"

Guys,

Frank found an interesting solution with MBS guys for the part of mistyping the item number in the purchase order entry window instead of checking "Add Item" option each time, a fix that defaults this option to be checked instead of not.

Currency Negative Sign, Before or After The Amount??

While having nothing to do this weekend, I tried to investigate and find the "actual" difference if exist between displaying the negative sign before or after the number, and I found!

image

While working on analytical accounting, and passing by inquiry forms I got this message:

image

Even if your negative sign was "()" instead of "-" and this box was disabled, it still active!! So if you are interested to implement Analytical Accounting and wanted to use the Multilevel Query Wizard or Distribution Query Wizard, make sure that the "After Amount" is not selected.

How to setup all modules to be 100% reconciled to GL?

I am sure that most of our GP clients asks this question, when you do not have "Post Through GL" checked, the system will create your GL voucher in GL Transaction Entry window upon posting any kind of transactions in the module windows, and if this voucher got deleted for any reason, you will have variances between the module and the GL, normally this will require allot of work to find out those variances by the end of the period.

However, in GP 10.0, Microsoft added a new functionality called "Reconcile to GL" that matches your transactions to its corresponding transactions in GL and generate variances report but Frank has an interesting article about preventing direct account entry for modules accounts, I recommend reading the blog post below that might change the way you implement GP: http://gp2themax.blogspot.com/2009/09/gptip42day-allow-account-entry.html
