Setup of V6.10 from an Empty Database

I can't swear this will help but I have had a number of occasions where if the fiscal calendar was not set up with periods well beyond any being used it caused problems. This is especially true for exporting data to FRx but since the export is itself a Progress routine the same as the generation of the data for the aging report so I suspect some of the same issues may be involved.

For instance....even though we are in 2008 (calendar fiscal year for us) we must have the periods for 2009 already defined in the fiscal calendar otherwise we get fiscal period not found errors. Before this coming January we will have to define 2010. Actually I believe you only need one period following the current fiscal year but it has always been easier to set up the whole next year.

Subject: [Vantage] Setup of V6.10 from an Empty Database.


Hi, I believe my initial question on the current fiscal record error
for invoice aging in customer tracker is related with the fact that
I'm setting up a new Vantage 6.1 from the grounds up.

I must've left something out in my setup.

Could someone give me a guideline on things that must be done in a
fresh setup?

I got my COA, Workcenters, configured.
Fiscal periods entered.

Is there certain other things that I must do? I wasn't involved with
vantage during the pre-installation stages.

And ironically, the Implementation Guide for version 5.10 that were
provided to us is missing the crucial pages on the 'System Migration
section'
I only have pages 24.1.9 - 24.1.11, looking at the 3 pages of the
System Migration that I have, I believe the information that I need
were in those missing pages.

Hi, I've configured a new database in Vantage 6.10 and in the Customer
Tracker > Invoices > Invoice Aging

I've encountered a error with the following message

"Current Fiscal record cannot be found
Cannot Continue."

This is a brand new setup, did I miss something in relation to the
Fiscal setups?

Some data conversion that I need to run?
Some option that I need to click to setup the Current Fiscal record?

Thanks.

Hi, seems like I need to add in the entire year's worth of Fiscal Period.

Thanks for reading.
