Hi Dwight,

I think the message is telling you that there is a problem with one line on 
your journal (line #7783).  This is most likely caused by an invalid segment 
in the GCR file.  In other words, someone inactivated a segment during the 
year figuring they would never post to it again.  The problem is that the 
year-end entry posts to all accounts.

When trying to post to the G/L using BTP, you may post to a segment that has 
not been setup yet.  In that case, the segment will be invalid.  If you 
later add the correct segment the GCR will still indicate that the segment 
string is invalid.  In that case, you will have to correct the GCR file to 
show that the combination is valid as follows:

Change flag to Valid (CRSTAT=0)
Add correct description (CRDESC)
Chance Acct Type (CRATYP)

1 = Asset
4 = Liability
5 = Equity
3 = Sales
2 = COGS & Expenses

If you change your filter to look at event 0 through 999, I'll bet you will 
see your journal entry in the Maintain events section.

If you need further help, please leave me a voice mail message.  I met you 
last year on the trial balance.

I sure hope someone can help me out.  We are on BPCS Mixed Mode 6.0.04 on
the AS/400.  We have been live on BPCS for a little over a year now.  I am
attempting to create the beginning balances and make the retained earnings
posting.  The transfer fails and in the process monitor I have a message
that "At least one Segment must contain a value on Journal Line 0007783."
The message ID is UMG3002.  The file/server name is CEA900B.  This message
is all well and good but I cannot find any journal entry to fix.  Where does
this go?  I am in a bit of a pinch and need to get the beginning balances in
there but I cannot find out what the problem is.

Any help out there from you CEA gurus????

Thanks in advance,
