Cannot Move to Returns due to Locked GL

Post by M1EnterpriseTech »

Example: If you have a Lock Date set on your General Ledger and you attempt to Return Parts on a Work Order prior to the Lock GL Date Set you will receive a pop up message reminding you of the Lock Date Set and will not allow the transaction.

You will need to remove the GL Lock Date Set and Move to Return | Create Credit Slip | Post to Payable as normal. Then add the GL Lock Date again to keep other entries from posting prior to that date.

NOTE: There will be an impact on the following accounts and the closed period as follows:
  • Credit to the Parts Received for Work In Progress
  • Debit to the Returned Items
You will need to do a Journal Entry/GL Adjustment to reverse the impact to the closed period as follows:
  • Debit to the Parts Received for Work In Progress
  • Credit the Returned Items
