we are running FX on a client site and it appears that the auto retrieve is adding default financial reports to the FX data folder. I don't see a retrieve option that disables retrieving financial statement specs. We would like to maintain spec files in the FX data that are different from the Ledger data that it is being retrieved from.

We created the financial statements in the FX data directories that we wanted. They remain their, but other spec files keep appearing after the retrieve.

Any ideas on what settings we might need to change for that?

Lyndon:

Are you retrieving from Adagio Ledger or Simply Accounting?

Current version of FX v9.0B?

I have many clients using FX, the auto-retrieve does not create new default financial specs. The only process that would do this is creating a new database.

If you brought the client's data and batch file into your office and ran it (only changing the batch file for difference in drive letter) does the problem repeat. My guess is that the workstation running the auto retrieve to think that a new database was not completed successfully and needs to finish the process (by creating the default financial specs).

Adagio Ledger with current version of FX. I created all the databases, retrieved data, deleted spec files I didn't want. They somehow reappeared but only in about half of he data sets.

I will continue to test tomorrow. I have gone back in and deleted the unwanted spec files. We will see what happens overnight.

The overnight process did not retrieve and additional financial reports. So all seems to be working as expected.
