Someone accidentally deleted a large invoice batch in AP this afternoon. Is there any way to undelete it??

Or is there a way to export it from my backup data and import it into my current data?

Susan:

Short answer is no. You could restore your backup to replace the current data. You could restore your backup to an alternative location and use GridView to read out the batch into an import file. Your dealer would be willing to do this for a fee.

On a copy of your current data where the invoice batch was deleted:
1) Create a new invoice batch and note the Batch Number ####. Check the data folder and you will find API####D and API####H.
2) Delete the API####D and API####H that were created.
3) From your backup that has the deleted batch restore the batch that was deleted and rename them to the ones you created and then deleted.
4) Run a DIC, it should complain, rebuild and see what you get.

Michael,

Thank-you SO much. You saved us hours of work tomorrow!! Our batch is back!! 8-)

Hi Susan:

I don't work for Softrak nor do I have any inside information but I would guess we'll see the ability to recover a deleted batch in an upcoming AP release. That feature has been added to GL and recently to AR. An upcoming release of AP will completely revise the batch handling and would likely make batch recovery possible at that time. Just guessing.
