Common mistakes and troubleshooting
-
The record will not save: Recheck Account, and Statement Date and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.
-
The values look right but the result is wrong: Open Account, Service Charge Account, and Interest Account from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
