Overview

A If a posting run is "stuck" you will get an error stating "There is another posting being run" message.

This can occur for a number of possible reasons:

  1. A colleague is carrying out a posting run at the same time.

  2. A posting run failed to properly close down after being completed

  3. A posting run crashed part-way through and did not close down properly

⚠️ Important: Before resetting, ensure that no run is genuinely in progress. Resetting during an active run may cause data inconsistencies in Weighsoft or your accounts package.


How to Reset a Run

Step 1: Access Admin Functions

  • Navigate to:
    Administration → Admin Functions

Step 2: Open the Runs Tab

  • Click on the Runs tab

  • You’ll see two reset options:

    • Invoice Run In Progress

    • Accounting Sync In Progress

Reset an Invoice Run

Reset a Posting Run

  1. Click Reset next to Accounting Sync In Progress

  2. Reopen the Runs tab — the status should now show No


Post-Reset Checks for Posting Runs

After resetting a posting run, it’s recommended to verify data integrity:

  1. Go to:
    Modules → Invoice Ledger

  2. Find the last invoice marked as Posted (look for a tick in the Posted column)

  3. Compare this invoice with your accounts package

If discrepancies exist:

  • You may need to reset the posted flag on the invoice, or

  • Delete the posting run, depending on your accounts package and posting method
