Re: [SL] Multiple Entries for Same Transaction

[Michael H. <mh...@it...>]

Some benign causes we've seen:
	- they're not really duplicated.  (Problem was reported by somebody  
who didn't realize the GL shows a line item for every monetary  
element of the transaction.)
	- somebody got Back button happy in their browser and was just  
trying to correct an entry.


Thanks,

Michael

Paul,

    I don't know how it could be so flagged, but I'll take a look.  
Regardless,
I should not see the bank's monthly service charge show up 4 times on  
the
same date, nor have a list of purchases on a credit card repeated,  
with 4
payments of the same amount on the same day. I have a meeting this  
evening,
so it looks like tomorrow night will be a long session cleaning up  
theese
duplicates. And, I suppose I'll need to go through each account, too.

    That's what bothers me, too.

Thanks,

Rich
