Payments are showing up in wrong acct

[SteveD]

Using DOS ver 11, on WIN XP Pro.

When I printed a Consolidate GL Transfers Control Report, it lists 5 payments in Account 303000, which is my RETURNS account. It's defined as such in my G.L.A.D.

But when I ran a PDQ report (from the "Customer Transactions" View, to list any transactions that were type "PA" AND had a GL Debit account begining with "3030", it did not list any.

Where is the Consolidate GL Transfers Control Report getting it's information?

Is it time to Recover Data files? And what's the safe way to do that?

Thank you!

Once you run the Consolidate GL Entries, you can not undo this task. The detail transactions have been purged and only the summary by account remains.

I would go back and print out the GLAD file from the AR Maintain Programs Menu and check the listings. This the ONLY file that controls the GL distribution. The temporary General Ledger Transaction file, from which you can print the GL Transactions, and later Consolidate, and create GL Entries is simply a resevoir for these activities. The GLAD file dictates all.
