External Solution

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We understand how frustrating it can be when something doesn’t work the way you expect it to. Upon further investigation, we have determined that the issue you reported is not a bug but rather a feature that was designed to work in a specific way.

The feature is by design because of the following: Change to posted vouchers in general ledger are limited to data that is internal in nature. The changes do not impact data for external financial statement reporting. As such, there is no restriction imposed, based on the period status.

We will continue to track this issue and monitor if other customers are impacted. We appreciate your feedback and want you to know that we are always working to improve our products and services.
