Install SP4 if you are using Analytical Accounting in GP

Microsoft has fixed quite a few AA issues in SP4 for GP 10, including critical fixes with AA CheckLinks. As I mentioned earlier, many Duplicate record problems in AA have also been resolved. So please install SP4 and be good to yourself if you are using Analytical Accounting.

If you run Check Links on the Analytical Accounting logical group of tables but run into the following error messages:

"[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'aaGLHdrID', table 'DBNAME.dbo.AAG30001', column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails."

and/or

"The stored procedure aagGenericGLOpenTOD returned the following results: DBMS 515, Microsoft Dynamics GP"

and/or

"[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PKAAG30001'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.AAG30001'.[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PKAAG30001'. Cannot insert duplicate"

There are Hot Topics on in PartnerSource and CustomerSource suggesting that users do not run Check Links on Analytical Accounting data until Service Pack 4 has been installed.

Specifically there are  the following issues with Check Links prior to SP4:

#6570 - "Slow performance when you run Check Links on the Analytical Accounting logical group of tables"

#6468 - "Error message when you run Check Links on Analytical Accounting if you have closed the year since installing Service Pack 2: "[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PKAAG30002'"

#6423 - "Check Links on Analytical Accounting returns the following error message if you have journal entries posted in recurring batches where the transaction date was overriden: ""[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Subquery returned more than 1 value"

#5622 - "Issue with AA Check Links"
