Watch your user names in Analytical Accounting

Sometimes the obvious is not so obvious. A few days ago we ran into an error on a test systems for an AA implementation in GP 2010. The user could “type” in a transactional code, but was thrown this error when they changed the code before validating.

After tinkering here and there in SQL 2008 and not getting any joy, we set up another test user but this time did not include the . in the user name.  (This particular customer has a policy where the user name is the same name as the domain name for a user, hence the . in the GP users name, see the red boxes)

The result…. no more errors.  A real quirky issue.
