When trying to make a new ACH account for the first time, it gives an error saying "

Next key(ach_distribution.recordnum) is not available. Restarting FIMS.

 

Program Name: gui\system\keynum.p

 Then FIMS completely restarts itself.

Answer:

If you haven't used ACH in FIMS before, it is possible that it was never initialized properly.  ACH must have numbers just like gifts and grants.

 

To set the next number:

  1. Tools > System Utilities > Set Automatic Numbers
  2. Choose ACH Account Record Number
  3. On the right, enter a number 1 larger that the value in the Next ACH Account Record Number to be Used.
  4. If that field is blank, enter a 1.
  5. Click Save and then Done.

 

You should be able to add ACH.
