    Hi Hemasri 


    Generally speaking, you want to take a look at the following Help Article: Clearing the To Be Printed or To Be Emailed windows for clearing those windows.

     

    However, based on the message you are getting the transaction is dated in a prior lock period. If you did wish to update that record you would need to ensure the following option is unticked or date prior to the transaction date - Setup>>Preferences>>Security>>Lock Period: Disallow entries prior to

    Hello Steven,

     

    Thanks for the solution . It fixed the error and was able to delete the record . but still cannot do the selection and group delete by clicking on sendemail button . It throws an error .

     

    any solution for this .

     

    I dont want to open each record and do it .will be time saving if i could do the deletion in a bunch without sending the email .

     

    Thanks,

      Hi Hemasri 


      Additional information would be required to the situation to help us investigate that exact situation.

      For example:

      • What is the exact wording of the error message? - If it is a Something has gone wrong message, a copy of the error log (bottom left of the message).
      • Are you using AccountRight to email or a desktop email client - i.e. is Setup>>Preferences>>Emailing>>Send Emails Using AccountRight enabled?
      • If you using a desktop email client, what product and version of that are you using including is it a 32 bit or 64 bit?
      • Can you email other transactions i.e. Invoices?
      • Is it only occurring when you attempt to email in bulk or does a single email generate the same message?

        Thanks for the help . My replies below

         

        For example:

        • What is the exact wording of the error message? - If it is a Something has gone wrong message, a copy of the error log (bottom left of the message).

        I am attaching the image of the error

         

        • Are you using AccountRight to email or a desktop email client - i.e. Setup>>Preferences>>Emailing>>Send Emails Using AccountRight enabled?

         I have disabled the check box from send emails using AccountRight 

         

        • If you using a desktop email client, what product and version of that are you using including is it a 32 bit or 64 bit?

        I am using outlook . 64 bit i guess.

         

        • Can you email other transactions i.e. Invoices?

        Yes , but now i have disabled it to sort this delete task.

         

        • Is it only occurring when you attempt to email in bulk or does a single email generate the same message?

        Yes , i am able to delete individual record . but i choose , already sent or printed option and then click on the send button.

         

        Thanks
