Disable Transaction Tracking

Depending on the volume of data entered into a single batch, you may need to disable AccuBuild's transaction tracking feature. Transaction tracking is a roll-back feature that rebuilds the various data files when a batch posting fails. The system can only handle 250 records within a batch but it is difficult for the end-user to measure the amount of records with a given batch. For example, the system not only counts the individual invoices within an accounts payable batch but also counts each job/phase posting, each g/l account posting, on each invoice. It is preferable to keep your batch entries small so that the transaction tracking can be utilized. This is especially important with accounts payable checks and cash receipts as these entries adjust the invoices found on the aging schedules and these files (openar.db and openap.db) would have to be rebuilt manually if the batch posting failed. If the system encounters too many records for the transaction tracking when posting, it will display an option to disable the transaction tracking. The transaction tracking may also be temporarily disabled for all batches from the Help Menu. This setting only affects the current user and will be re-set once the user exits the program.
