PR530 error messages - accounting uni

Looks like this has to do with the field glnames.posting_flag. This is what I would try
1. do a bldsh on PR530
2. do a find on GLN-POSTING-FLAG on the PR530.cbl file

Hi Ragu, thanks your prompted response. I did a find on GLN-POSTING-FLAG on the PR530. They are type 'P' for posting.
We are testing an interface file from api for one process level (one is already live). When running pr530 we are getting an error message "Accounting Unit 12345 does not allow posting". Why does the program create records in the timerecord table for some of the timerecords and not others with the same accounting unit? There were 4 records in the input file to pr530, 3 out of 4 were created.The reg and vac records were created but no the sku (sick used).

That particular error message is being generated in the PRTRDPD library.  It is the result of the program trying to validate the GLMaster when it calls paragraph 635-EDIT-GLMASTER-60.   This logic basically invokes another form IFAC.  The 635-EDIT-GLMASTER routine lives in library member EDACPD.  It is quite deep into the logic and I'd be overly cautious in modifying any of this logic.   You can see the error message by doing a msgmnt command and enter your product line with the category of EDAU.

hI jaherb, thank you so much for the information, very helpful. Yes, I entered the command and was able to see the error messages using the command provided.

I was a mainframe programmer and supported inhouse developed applications. I was able to use tools such as endevor search to find out libraries, codes, etc.  

Not a problem... I too came from mainframes when I first started at Lawson, that was 15 years ago.   Things within Lawson are quite a bit different from the mainframe.  I felt I was learning programming all over again. 

Good luck with your mods.....
