A batch is available for posting on the Post Journals form that has no debit or credit amounts shown for it. You post the batch and the Posting execution report contains the error 'No journal entry lines for this batch'. Now the batch is greyed out on the Post Journals form and I can not find it on the Enter Journals form. How can I find and delete this batch?
This batch does not have any journals. You need to use the Find Batches window to find the Batch on the Enter Journals form. From there, you can delete the batch. The first window that is displayed when you navigate to the Enter Journals form is the Find Journals window.

Will the history of an old summary template be in Summary Account Inquiry?
NO. When you drop a summary template, and reassign the child values, Summary Account Inquiry does not save the history of the previous accounts.

How many concurrent requests are generated when you run the Add/Delete Summary Program?
4 requests: 1 for the parent and 3 for child accounts.

NO, It just groups the existing accounts to meet the summary template criteria.

No. Posting is controlled at the user level. A user can post all journals for a set of books or none at all. This is controlled by function security in Release 11 and 11i. In Release 10.7, you can remove the Post form from the user's menu, to restrict posting.
