Bromcom Finance: Why can’t I post my Petty Cash?

My petty cash saves but does not post and has a “No” in the posting column.

This is likely to be due to your Petty Cash book running our of folio numbers.

Go to Modules> Finance>Homepage> Maintenance> Books.

Ensure you have enough folio numbers for each line of expenditure record.

If not, you will need to open a new book and set the start number to next number after your current book.

Please then go back to petty cash and highlight the petty cash expenditure on the left and click save and post, this will then turn the “No” to a “Yes” for posting successfully.
