MAS 200 posting to closed period

We have encountered, for the second time, a situation where we make an entry for a Cash Dispersement and MAS 200 version 4.2 makes a duplicate AP entry.  The AP entry is posted to a batch that was closed over a year ago.  This in turn makes the year-end balance from that prior year different from what is in the books.  Although we now know how to correct the resulting problem, we would like to know how it is possible for this problem to occur so that we can use the necessary precautions the next time.  It was our understanding that you could not post to a year that has been closed on the books.  Is this correct?

Re: MAS 200 posting to closed period

I had a client report this (I think on the same 4.2 version) about a year ago. We never were able to nail it down but I haven't heard that it's recurred. I think we did the standard reinitializing of the invoice data entry header/line files. Use caution when re-initializing any data files - it's always best to have a backup since once cleared they won't come back.I
