Re: Rebuild balances - Only if you really have to...

[Jeff_Klipa/Harvard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

22/GLU only does a  Verify G/L Data Base ...
If you really are intending to Rebuild the balances you will need to run:
21/GLU  Rebuild G/L Balances
But fair warning, This is not something you want to do lightly...
The last time we ran a rebuild on our Model 720 it took nearly a solid week
to finish the rebuild...
Here are our record counts for our key G/L files and we've only been live
for two years on about 10 plants and they each have their own G/L
company...
Member          No. of
name           records
FLP062      40,128,092
FLP008      11,381,017
FLP007       2,667,995

I know I did not answer your question directly but you really should not
have to use the 21/GLU Rebuild G/L Balances as a "regular" step in your
financial operation...  The rebuild should only be used to fix problems and
really as a last resort in my opinion...  There has to be a better answer
that addresses the root cause of your problem and not simply treating the
symptoms...  Perhaps others will give you more illuminating comments...

Good luck...

The net profit accounts for our individual companies do not add up to our
net profit account for our total company(company 00).  Has anyone else
experienced this?  Do we have to run 22/GLU rebuild balances each month? We
rebuild hierarchies when we add a new account, should we rebuild
hierarchies
every month (32/GLM)?
Thank you,
