Thank you for your reply.
Your suggestion would work under normal circumstances but, given that it is Year End and they can't wait, I looked for another solution.
A Data Repair would solve the problem. But a faster solution was to edit the AR Global file and reset the posting sequence number using an external editor.
For the record, I discovered that the problem existed in the client's ACCPAC Plus data from BEFORE it was converted to Adagio.
The problem is now solved.
