    We have a couple of transactions that are not posted. They are transactions in the previous year, the cheques are paid. I need help here.

    Since the transactions are from a previous year, the fiscal period may be closed in the General Ledger.  Once a period has been soft or hard closed, you can no longer post and would receive this error.  To fix the issue, either change the post date of the transaction, which will require voiding the cheque, or reopen the soft closed fiscal period to allow posting.  For more information on this error, take a look at Knowledgebase solution BB7013.  Hope this helps.
