I tried to clear a posting on a shipment but got an error.

If you are unable to post or delete a shipment, check to ensure that you don't have a Sales Invoice / Cash Receipt / Credit Memo created after the Shipment date. You'll need to clear the posting in the backwards order in which they were created. If this isn't the issue, ensure that there aren't any file attachments on the shipment. These will need to be deleted before clearing the posting or deleting.
