Error closing the period

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 7

We are getting the following error when trying to close the GL:

System Message 6068

This process cannot begin while posting or generate recurring or another closing process is active.

Anyone know what is causing this?  We've never received this error before.

Thanks,

Katrina Cummins

    We never figured out what was causing the error but we tried again the next morning and it worked fine.

    Were you able to determine a fix for this?  We are having the same issue

    Hello Katrina,

    How is this issue going? I'm assuming that the error is resolved at this point.

    Best Regards,

    Hello Katrina,

    Normally it means another user has the posting screen open.

    You can check that by going to active users in the administration module.

    It could be that posting screen also closed abruptly in a previous session and did not shut down properly.

    Best Regard,

    Jana MacDonald
