      Greetings,

      I’ve got a situation where an AP check was cut to a vendor and applied to a single invoice.Ā  Something got corrupted during check posting (not the typical check batch interruption).Ā  Batch recovery did not resolve the problem.Ā  Printing the edit list gave an error of “The total applied amount is incorrect. This transaction contains error. It won’t be posted”, which I was unable to fix. I ran checklinks which emoved the AP check (?). I can find the check in the Checkbook Register, but I can’t drill back as I get the message “Document no longer exists in originating module.” Ā I also cannot void using bank transactions as I get the message “This transaction was entered in Payables Management. Please use that module to void it.” Now I am stuck.

      Ā 

      Anyone have any idea of how I can void or remove the AP invoice?Ā  Thanks in advance.

      Jim

      ?Have you tried the Utilities areas of Purchasing and Financial that will allow you to remove transaction and distribution history?Ā  Make sure if you use these features to only choose that transaction and not all.Ā  It is also a good idea to have a backup.
      Hope this helps,

      Thanks Tanya. I think I’m going to have to do some removal at some point to get both the the check and the invoice out of GP completely.Ā  I know there is likely corrupt data in the PM tables and want to investigate that first.Ā Ā

      Jim,
      If you are comfortable in SQL I would definitely look through the PM Open, History and Key tables.Ā  Then in the OpenĀ  GL tables.Ā  If you need any help I would be happy to start you in the correct direction.

      HI Tanya,
      I’ve checked both open and history. I need to check the PM keys.Ā  It’s been a while, but I’m pretty sure I had to work on the key table. Thanks again!
      Jim

      Jim,
      If I were in your situation, I would use the ApexSQL Search tool and look for any occurrences of the document number, voucher number, check number, etc. to make sure that I find the complete trail of the problem transaction. Sometimes remnants of transactions hide in unlikely places. I’ve attached Apex search, but you can download it from their website.Ā https://www.apexsql.com/sql_tools_search.aspx
      Kind regards,
      Leslie
