New Stuff :-“Location is Inactive” error In Sage 300 ERP.
In this blog we are going to discuss about how user can control “Customer has unposted documents. Cannot be made Inactive” and “Customer has unpaid documents. Cannot be made Inactive” error.
In day-to-day business activities, it is possible that certain customers may stop buying services or products from suppliers because of poor customer service, lack of communication, lack of perceived value, competitive influence, changing customer needs or priorities, etc. Also the business owner can stop giving service or products to customers because of not receiving timely payments from customers. Hence for these reasons a business person may inactive such customers from providing services or products. So while deactivating such customers in Sage 300 ERP (by navigating to Accounts Receivable>>A/R Customers>>Customers) business persons may encounter following errors
This is because the documents and the payments against same customers are not posted. For unposted documents user just needs to navigate to Account Receivable>>A/R Transactions>>Invoice batch list. Here user can see all the unposted transactions because of which he is getting that “Customer has unposted documents. Cannot be made Inactive” error. So user just have to post all the transactions for same customer. Please refer to below screenshot.
After this when again user tries to inactive same customer, he will get that “Customer has unpaid documents. Cannot be made Inactive” error. For this, user have to navigate to Account Receivable>>A/R Transactions>>Receipt entry screen. Select new batch and same customer number and then press on Go button present on screen. Then make Apply field to YES and click on Add button. Please refer to below screenshot.
Check/Receipt number has been over applied popup will display. Click on ok and enter document amount in Receipt amount field. Save and post the same. Please refer below screenshot
After this open A/R Customers screen and select the same customer and make it inactive and click on save. System will save the data and will make the customer inactive.
