How to Enable a CustomGL Script to Process Historic Data
To process historic data with a CustomGL script, its deployment status must be set to 'Released' for proper execution.
Short answer
A CustomGL script will not execute on historic data unless its deployment status is set to 'Released'. This critical configuration ensures the script is active and able to process past transactions as intended. Verify the deployment status to resolve execution issues for CustomGL scripts.
Scenario
A CustomGL script may fail to execute as expected, particularly when attempting to process historic financial data. Even when the script owner has full permissions, the script remains inactive, preventing it from running against past transactions.
Solution
To ensure a CustomGL script executes correctly, especially when processing historic data, its deployment status must be explicitly set to 'Released'. This action activates the script, allowing it to run as intended and process the required financial records.
