Problem after deleting a bill that was paid by check now reconciled

Apr 06, 2009 2 Replies

I goofed today and deleted the wrong bill. It was one that was paid by a check cleared in a previous month (Feb 2009) that is reconciled. The check that paid it shows the original total amount, but doesn't pay/ include the invoice or any discounts or credits originally paid. I re- entered the bill, but when I try to do anything with the check such as checking off invoices for it to include in the payment or unclearing it in the register, I get a Microsoft error message (Application must close) when the transaction tries to save and I have to end QB.



I would consider offsetting the bill with credits left on the account, but it leaves a discount attributable to the bill that is still paid on the check.



Running QB2003 on WinXP.



Anybody have a solution?


Sounds like your file has a physical problem that is causing the program to crash.

You may need to delete that check to stop the program from crashing. Then I would run a Data Verification to see if there is any file corruption. You may also need to rebuild the file a few times to clear all errors.

Good advice, THANKS! A rebuild allowed me to delete the check and re- enter.
