Having problems with partially released batches?

Starting with Microsoft Dynamics SL 6.5, in some instances you can edit partially released Financial batches by accessing them in the entry screen while in Initialize Mode.  This is especially helpful with resolving out of balance batches that will not release. 

To edit a partially released Financials batch, enter Initialize Mode by going to Application Options | Initialize Mode on the Microsoft Dynamics SL toolbar.  Next, open the entry screen where the partially released batch originated.  With the cursor in the Batch Number field, press F3 to locate and select the partially released batch.  Note - Depending upon the access rights of the user that is logged into Microsoft Dynamics SL, it may be necessary to log in as the user SYSADMIN, to be able to enter Initialize Mode.

Are you making backups?

“Shortness of breath, intense feelings of dread, nausea - no, it's not a heart attacked.  It's the realization that your hard drive just died.  If your IT team is unable to bring the computer back to live, the only option is to send the drive to a data recovery service, which can charge anywhere from several hundred to several thousand dollars to rescue your file - if they are recoverable. We all know the moral:  Back up your hard drive often, and use online services such as Mozy, iBackup, or EVault.  That way, even if a fire ravages your server room, the data will be fine. You can also use two drives to store two sets of your data."
