Attaché Accounts: Force a re-add of the chart of accounts

Force the chart of accounts to re-add subtotals and totals so standard and custom Financial Reports will update correctly or you are getting an error "Chart re-add necessary" running financial reports.

Updated over 2 months ago

The chart of accounts will automatically re-add its subtotal and total account balances when a standard Financial Report is generated. If the subtotal and total accounts in the report do not update as a result of changes to posting account balances (for example, after entering additional transactions), the chart can be manually forced to re-add.



To force a chart re-add

  1. Go to General Ledger, Masterfiles, Accounts, Maintain.

  2. Edit any General Ledger Account code (for example, enter a full stop at the end of the Description), and save the change.

  3. Go to General Ledger, Reports, Financial, Standard Financial Reports.

  4. From the Report Layout Name field, select P&L Balance Sheet.

  5. Click Print (F9) and output the report to screen.

  6. If the report runs without error, then you can go back to Step 1 and 2 and remove the full stop.
