Consolidation Checksum

b2amol

Hi,

I have my consolidation set up in 2009, and am trying to get data from a company which is on 4.0. When i do functions>test file the xml consolidation file, i get an error in the report 'Imported checksum does not equal calculated checksum - the file may be corrupt'. I tried it a couple of times on different days, and the error remains. Does it have to do something with difference in versions?
Any workarounds?

Thanks & Regards,

Amol

Here is part of code that calculates checksum (CU 432). Does it mean that consolidation cannot be done for companies across versions? Why would they put such a constraint?


CheckSum :=
DateToDecimal(StartingDate) + DateToDecimal(EndingDate) +
TextToDecimal(FormatVersion) + TextToDecimal(ProductVersion);

Thanks,

Amol
