This happens if you have configured your Common Services -> Bank Services -> Bank Setup -> G/L Integration:  "Create G/L Transactions by" to "Creating and Posting a New Batch". You need to post the G/L Batch manually. Refer to G/L Integration Option

Re-Processing Error Transactions using Periodic Processing

After resolving the cause of the error, you should re-process the error transactions:

  • Open Inter-Entity Transactions \ IET Periodic Processing

  • Select the Cash Management tab

  • Check the A/P, A/R or Bank Cash Management checkbox as appropriate

  • Check the ‘Process Error Entries’ checkbox

  • Click ‘Process’

Inter-Entity will attempt to re-process. You can then return to the Audit Log to check that the status has changed for the problem entries.
