    In our ACTRANS table, there are many rows where the required key OBJ-ID has a value of 0, but other rows have a value that we can then link to the GLTRANS table. Why is this value sometimes 0, and what process updates it to a valid value?
    Thanks -

      Are you sure you're not referring to GLT-OBJ-ID? That would be used from ACTRANS to link back to the OBJ-ID in GLTRANS (e.g. ATN.GLT_OBJ_ID = GLT.OBJ_ID).
      By definition, OBJ-ID in ACTRANS cannot be zero unless you are missing indexes..

        Yes, my mistake; it is GLT-OBJ-ID that has the 0 value.

          What is the SYSTEM code?

            System Code = AC

            So I can't join to GLTRANS table with the GLT-OBJ-ID because it is 0

              If you check the TRANS_TYPE column for the records, if they are A records, then they are AC only transactions created on the AC40. if this is the case, then there is not a related GL journal.

                Thanks for the tips - I've figured out how to select the rows needed.
