When I open the Business Status, it is hung in the refresh mode. Numbers just flash away forever and never stop. I even set the SD-Q setting to not refresh on start up, but it still does.

I wonder if you initialize the ISBSF file and clear out all the old data would help. I wonder if when it refreshes, it will rebuild prior periods?  By the look of the data in MDB I would say no!

I have had trouble with Business Status as well.  As my company is on the Silver Support Plan, we have requested email support.  The only way we have been able to keep the numbers correct is to rebuild (not refresh) the business status, which wipes out all the old data.  I have our system set up to do a refresh when the program is opened.  The last time I did this, my inventory value more than doubled, and the other numbers went really wacky.  After clearing and rebuilding, the numbers were right again.  
 

I was checking this out this weekend and noticed that :
I have one batch of Cash Disbursements that was entered on 2/28/06 with a post date  of 03/01/06.  THe numbers are a close match to the error that started in February.  Since it is only close I can't say it caused the error.  But if these transactions were in the temp file on 2/28/06 for a post at a later date, could they have been used to refresh February?  
I can't tell when they were posted since it seems that most of the cash disbursements don't have audit info. (Some do, and since I don't do this I am not sure how the few with audit info are done.)

Okay, just ignore all my previous ramblings.  I figure that even though when you open the BS and it says refreshing data, it's not really refreshing.  I must not have hit the refresh button on Saturday, which accounts for the difference in Saturday's total and today's.  
New data though, and I suspected something was amiss with this before but couldn't pinpoint it--
There were unposted transaction to the cash account in GL-O which I could see in BKGLTEMP.  
Total in the BS before these were entered- (56967.39)
Total deposits in GL-O and TEMP file- 31442.00
Total in BS after refreshing- (25525.39)-- Correct!
HOwever, we also had in the unposted transactions a Journal Entry to transfer $$ from our LOC to the cash account.  These were not showing up in the BS balance even though they were present in the GL-O as a type GJ.  Unfortunately, they were posted before I got a chance to check the TEMP file to see if they were in there.  However, when I refreshed after the transaction was posted, the balance was the same as before, (25525.39).  The BS is not looking at transfers between our LOC and our cash account, done  as a GJ type.
WE had several of these, in and out,  in the Feb and March months.
Hope this helps.

That is true, GJ types will not be picked up but CD and CR and OT will.

First let me say that I should remove the several posts I last made to this subject!
I have a new piece of data though and this one is for real- ie all the reports document it.  My AP is off by exactly 464.68- AP account is 206870.86 and Business Status is 206406.18.  There are two transactions in the detailed trial balance:
voucher (type RP transaction) entered on 3/28 with post date 4/1 for 464.68- credit (increase) AP acct.
check (type CD transaction) entered on 3/31 with post date 4/1 for 464.38- debit (decrease) AP acct.
Either the voucher was not processed by the Business status or the check was processed twice.

PS it looks like the payable didn't process since my payables for April are also off by 464.68.
