How To Fix F4462 - Postings have since been made to this account

F4462 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: F4 - Line items/balances/configuration

• Message number: 462

• Message text: Postings have since been made to this account

What causes this issue?

The balance of the selected line items when displaying account balance
or during account analysis differs from the balance of the items
displayed in the line item display.
This is due to the time lag between determining both numbers. Although
the transaction figures were determined at the beginning of the
transaction account balance, the line items were not determined until
the first time you branched to the line items or when you displayed the
open items in the transaction "Account balance".
In this case, the account was posted to between these times so that the
line items are already up-to-date, yet the transaction figures display
the old value.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
