Bryan,
I gather by the fact that you have 9 million records that you are not using
the COM GLI. If that is the case, I would first turn it off so no more
transactions will get into the file.  Then, make sure that the COM-to-GL
interface is also turned off. 

You could clear the OEITXN file and the update the OEICTL records to show
zero unassigned records for each transaction type. Another way to handle it
is to let XA assign the records, post them to a future period, and then run
the "Print and Clear TEMGEN" option on the COM GL Management menu. Before
you do any of the above listed steps, however, I would change all the
reporting to go on hold automatically, change the number of pages for those
reports to *NOMAX, and test all these steps in a test environment.

Then, finally, I would ask why the Accounting Department is not using
something that would make their life so much easier.
