Thanks for all your help in the past. Today I had a problem. I retrieved my batches from A/R and O/E to post into G/L. However, I wanted them posted for the fiscal period ending Jul 31, not Aug 31. But I wasn't concentrating and forgot to change the fiscal period. I tried to unpost the batch and got this error "Validation of reconstructed batch failed because of unbalanced entry in the batch. Unposting halted.". I went to the help files, they said to check data integrity. I did that, it was ok. What happened that I was not able to unpost the batch?

Hello Taylor,

One of the accounts the batch was posted to has consolidation turned on. You cannot unpost a batch where transactions have been consolidated.

Hi Andrew:

That makes sense.

But perhaps the dialogue message can be improved in Ledger 9.0 to explain the situation better? The current message almost guarantees a support call of one kind or another.
