Warning: recoverable VAT/Sales tax is not entered correctly

A VAT/Sales tax code for expenses has been applied , but the account on which the VAT is being calculated is not in debit. More details on the page: Transactions. If this operation is correct, disable this message by inserting Yes in the "Don't Warn"column in the VAT Codes table.

Warning: exchange rate already exists

An exchange rate with the same date, reference currency and currency cannot be repeated.

Warning: historical exchange rate with different multiplier

The historical exchange rate with date must have the same multiplier as the exchange rate without date

Warning: This isn't the fixed rate

The currency has a fixed exchange rate. There can be no other exchange rates than those of the Exchange rates table or in the file properties. This would not be an error if slightly different rounding figures have been applied.

Warning: transaction multiplier is not the one from the Exchange rates table

For this currency you are using a different multiplier from the one specified in the exchange rate table. Recalculate the exchange rate for the transaction.

Warning: VAT/Sales tax account is used more then once

The account linked to the VAT code is also used in the transaction (maybe an error).

Warning: VAT/Sales tax in credit without credit account

In the transaction, a VAT due code has been entered, but the credit account is missing. More details on the page: Transactions.

Warning: VAT/Sales tax in debit without debit account

In the transaction, a VAT recoverable code has been entered, but the debit account is missing. More details on the page: Transactions.

Warning: VAT/Sales tax with net amount not in basic currency

In the multicurrency accounting, it is possible to enter transactions with a net VAT code only in transactions with basic currency. If there is an amount in foreign currency and a net VAT code is being applied, this function is not supported by the program and differences are being created.
When there is an amount in foreign currency, in order to work around the problem, we suggest to insert the net amount, insert in the VAT/Sales tax column the net VAT code and, while always positioned in the same cell, press the F6 key to automatically add the VAT/Sales tax amount to the net entered amount.

Warning: Transactions without date will not be included in the balances of the Balance Sheet and the Profit & Loss Statement
To find the missing dates, ensure that the Option "Transaction date required" is enabled (File and accounting properties, Options tab), and select the command Recheck Accounting from the Account1 menu.

Warning: there are two or more transactions with identical data
You probably entered the same transaction twice; check the balances of the post/bank accounts and, if necessary, cancel the duplicate transaction.

Opening date and/or closing date not valid or missing (file and accounting properties)

The enhanced statement and the accounting report need an accounting opening date and a closing date. These can be set using the command File - File and accounting properties (Opening date and Closing date).

There is a difference in the opening balances due to rounding. You have to balance the opening balances manually.

See Differences in the opening balances for multicurrencies accounting files.

Warning: there are imbalances (exchance rates). Continue anyway?

The cause may be a difference in the opening balances or some transaction difference. See Recheck the accounting

File and accounting properties: accounts exchange rate profit or exchange rate loss are missing. Continue anyway?

In order to set the accounts for exchange rate profit and loss see Starting a multi-currency accounting

There are exchange rate differences not entered. Continue anyway?

See Recording exchange rate differences

Warning: there are imbalances (closure). Continue anyway?

The cause may be a difference in the opening balances or some transaction difference. See Recheck the accounting

Warning: the two accounting files are not of exactly the same type. Data loss is possible. Continue anyway?

When converting a more complex accounting file into a simpler accounting type, some data loss may occur. For instance if you switch from an accounting with VAT to an acconting without VAT, data relating to VAT will be lost. See Changing accounting type
