Cause

While the debits and credits may be equal to the document amount the net of the debits and credits coded to all cash type accounts are not equal to the document amount. Look in the transaction at the lines that are going to cash type account, and you will see they are not equal to the document amount.

Resolution

Review the amounts coded to each of the Cash Accounts in the document to make sure they are coded to an actual Cash Account. The account type used in the transaction might be something other than a cash account. Also, if you are using multiple cash accounts the net debits and credits to all the cash accounts may not be the document amount.

If you have a large number of transactions and difficulty finding the entry, consider changing your session to a batch to suspend status. This will allow you to save the session and then run an unposted transaction report totaling by GL code to make amounts easier to find.
