inconsistencie error

Hi All,

I have one question. I am getting this kind of error when I am trying to post line from general journal to g/l entry:

"Break On Error Message:

The transaction cannot be completed because it will cause inconsistencies in the G/L Entry table. Check where and how the CONSISTENT function is used in the transaction to find the reason for the error.

Contact your system administrator.

Tables can be marked as inconsistent during comprehensive tasks, such as posting. This prevents data from being updated incorrectly."

I want to ask are there general rules about what condition should be met in order G/L Entry to be consistent.(rounding, format …of the values that should be post from general journal to g/l entry??) and how should be filled in to avoid this error

Thanks in advance

Quite simple: In codeunit 12 command “GLEntry.CONSISTENT” is fired - meaning that at the end of posting the journal (or when performing a COMMIT) the debet/credit-balance in G/L Entry must be 0. No more, no less.

Your error may occur due to error in standard application or that you have some modification in your NAV causing this inconsistensy.
I would check for modifications first…
