Have you tried DropObject() to release your object?

Yes, I've done that and get an error stating the object doesn't support it.  I believe DropObject() is only for button or external BOI scripts.

I think if you try oSession.DropObject(oGL_DTR) , I think should work.  Have you tried it with the object handle?

On second thought, that's probably not going to work as you said.   Let me do a little digging.

You could try oSession.dropObject("GL_DailyTransaction_upd").   If that doesn't work, I'll see if there is something else.  That worked in my quick test.

I added retVal = oSession.DropObject("GL_DailyTransaction_upd") but the DTR is still hanging in the Master Console until I close S/O completely. Definitely odd.  I've had another scripting person on my side look at it and he's perplexed too.

Could it be the Preview is still an open thread somewhere?  If you don't care about Paperless, why not try Deferred?

The previews and all other visible windows, that shouldn't be open, are closed and I have tried the other print options and encounter the same issue.  I even tried some of the other methods like UpdateCleanup() that are available in this object.

Orphan ProvideX tasks can be problematic.

I think it may be because you are changing the module/program using SetProgram().  You may need to set those back to "Sales Order".  I don't think the S/O task is listed anymore is it?

Good idea.  The Master Console is showing B/M DTR is in use so I'll try changing back to S/O and see if that helps.

Using SetProgram() to get me back to S/O does make the system show I'm back in S/O and out of the B/M DTR in the Master Console. Unfortunately the system still thinks an update is in process until I close the S/O entry window.  Below is my updated code.

retVal = oSession.SetModule("B/M")
'msgbox("Set Module " & retVal)

retVal = oSession.SetDate("B/M", 20220104)
'msgbox("Set Date " & retVal)

'get a handle on the DTR object and update the DTR
retVal = oSession.SetProgram(oSession.LookupTask("GL_DailyTransactionUpdate_UI"))
SET oGL_DTR = oSession.AsObject(oSession.GetObject("GL_DailyTransaction_upd"))
		'msgbox("DTR UPD Handle" & retVal)
	retVal = oGL_DTR.SetUpdateRegister(sCurReg)
		'msgbox("Register set? " & retVal & " ; Last Error:  " & oGL_DTR.LastErrorMsg)
	retVal = oGL_DTR.ProcessReport("PREVIEW")
		'msgbox("Process Report " & oGL_DTR.LastErrorMsg)
	retVal = oGL_DTR.Update()
		'msgbox("DTR Updated? " & retval & " ; Last Error: " & oGL_DTR.LastErrorMsg)
retVal = oSession.DropObject("GL_DailyTransaction_upd")
retVal = oSession.SetProgram(oSession.LookupTask("SO_SalesOrder_UI"))

I'm so close I can taste it!  LOL!

Where exactly are you encountering an issue where the system still thinks an update is in process?

Sales Order Entry, with or without the order open.  If I go to run the DTR in GL I get the following message:

Once I close Sales Order Entry I can run the DTR task without getting the message.

Maybe you could try dropping the BM Production Update?  Did you drop that one too?

I did add retVal = oSession.DropObject("BM_ProductionRegister_upd") after finished with the object but getting the following error:

Odd because the error is referencing something in the next object that works if I don't drop the previous object:

'get a handle on the BOM production register update object and update the register
SET peu = oSession.AsObject(oSession.GetObject("BM_ProductionRegister_upd"))
	retVal = peu.SelectBatch(sBatchNo)
	retVal = peu.ProcessReport("PREVIEW")
	retVal = peu.Update()
retVal = oSession.DropObject("BM_ProductionRegister_upd")

retVal = oSession.SetModule("B/M")
'msgbox("Set Module " & retVal)

retVal = oSession.SetDate("B/M", 20220104)
'msgbox("Set Date " & retVal)

'get a handle on the DTR object and update the DTR
retVal = oSession.SetProgram(oSession.LookupTask("GL_DailyTransactionUpdate_UI"))
SET oGL_DTR = oSession.AsObject(oSession.GetObject("GL_DailyTransaction_upd"))
		'msgbox("DTR UPD Handle" & retVal)
	retVal = oGL_DTR.SetUpdateRegister(sCurReg)
		'msgbox("Register set? " & retVal & " ; Last Error:  " & oGL_DTR.LastErrorMsg)
	retVal = oGL_DTR.ProcessReport("PREVIEW")
		'msgbox("Process Report " & oGL_DTR.LastErrorMsg)
	retVal = oGL_DTR.Update()
		'msgbox("DTR Updated? " & retval & " ; Last Error: " & oGL_DTR.LastErrorMsg)
retVal = oSession.DropObject("GL_DailyTransaction_upd")
retVal = oSession.SetProgram(oSession.LookupTask("SO_SalesOrder_UI"))
