This parameter is used when implementing unit or mass generation processings of accounting entries using automatic journals.
You can use this parameter to request a simulated generation of entries in a dedicated simulation screen. No accounting entry will actually be generated.  

No

No simulation run. Entries are generated. 
This is the default value.

Yes always

The generation of entries is simulated.
During the generation, a screen automatically opens and displays the simulation results and potential warning messages.
During mass processings, all the entries are displayed.

Yes if error

The generation of entries is simulated.
The screen displaying the simulation results only opens when an error occurs.
During mass processings, only entries in error are displayed.

In mass processing, when this parameter has the value Yes always or Yes if error, click OK to go to the next entry. Once the last entry has been displayed, the log file details the list of entries in error and associated error message.

Comments

  • This parameter is only used by processings based on accounting journals in order to generate account entries. The processings that generate accounting entries without using automatic journals are not concerned by this parameter: this simulation step is skipped when generating entries through the accounting validation.
  • This user parameter is designed to ensure control during the Sage X3 implementation phase.
    During the current Sage X3 operating phase, the parameter is not used and keeps its default value: No.
