Understanding Data Integrity: The data integrity check will warn of possible serious errors in your data.
- Select Maintenance, Check Data Integrity to ensure your accounts and sub-ledgers balance.
- The left side (L) of the Integrity Summary window is the General Ledger balance as of the latest transaction date
- The right side (R) of the Integrity Summary window is the balances associated with your customers, vendors, or employee
- The A/P balance (L) should always match the Unpaid Invoices (R) like the example below
Troubleshooting:
WARNING: If your data file uses a foreign currency, you should not follow this article. Contact Customer Support. Unlinking A/R and A/P will ruin the foreign balances of those accounts.
- Select Setup, Settings, Company, then Currencies to check if you are using foreign currencies.
- If there is more than the home currency, then you are using foreign currencies.
- Contact Customer Support for data repair at 1-888-522-2722.
If you sent the file to your accountant using the Accountant Edition:
- The accountant made a general journal entry directly to the control account instead of the module in question.
- EXAMPLE: You should post A/R adjustments in the Sales Invoice module.
- Return the backup file to the accountant to void the general journal entry(ies) that affected the control account.
- Restore the voided entries the accountant returned.
- If the accountant will be making the entries:
- You could make those entries in the module in question or,
- disregard the data integrity issue if they prefer to keep using the General Journal for adjustments.
- For example, if it is for Accounts Payable, you should be making entries and adjustments in the purchase invoices module.
- Your company file cannot have a data inconsistency while in History mode.
- Select Maintenance, then Check Data Integrity.
