Check printed conundrum

bhalpin

Hi.

The sequence is:

- Vendor cheque was entered in payment journal
- Check was printed (but not posted)
- Journal line was deleted (Yup, you can do that!)

Now there is a check ledger entry in the bank, and no entry in the bank ledger entries, G/L, orvendor. The problem is trying to get the check back in and posted properly.

- If you enter a new payment entry, it won't post unless the check is printed.

- If you try to print the check the error is that that check# already exists in the bank.

- If you try to void the check ledger entry from the bank, the error is that you can't void a check that has ben printed.

Is there any way out of this trap?

you get an entry even without posting?

Yes - a check ledger entry appears when the check is printed.

BUT - my original posting was WRONG. It turns out that a developer had disabled the OnDelete code in the Gen. Journal Line table that disallowed deletion if the check was printed (a temporary change for testing something that was forgotten about.)

SO - That scenario is not possible under standard NAV.

It looks to me like all we ned to do is delete the existing check ledger entries and start again. Will try that.
