Cannot Delete Non-Journal Entries

, ,

PROBLEM

When I run CB187 job, I found an error message at CB N-68 as per below:

I am not able to delete CB entry with error message “cannot delete non-GL journal entries”. Should I go ahead and post the CB or is there any way I can delete the entry?

 

RESOLUTION

The message that you cannot delete a non-GL journal is a system enforced error. If the issue results in GL substituting error suspense, a sequenced journal will be created.

Otherwise after it is posted, you could copy with reversing entries to create a new journal with exact opposite data so the two ultimately net to zero.

Or if you simply need to reallocate an entry, a manual entry could be created to “fix” the data.
