Hi guys i have dynamic nav 2009 when i go to item card then change item xxx from ton to kg it give me error
"you cannot change base unit of measure because there are one or more open ledger entries for item "
now how i change from ton to kg
thanks
Once the transaction is been done, we cannot change the Base (Inventory) unit of that item. Select the item click the transaction, go to the main transaction (PO,SO, Counting, Movement), if the transaction is not posted delete the line, change the UOM, then re-enter the transaction line.
Thanks
Excellent but it is already posted before two monthes
If you really want to change the UOM for the Item, If there is inventory available, you can wait until you sell or consume the the available inventory. Means when your all open item ledger entries for that item get closed (when inventory become 0) then you can change the base Unit of Measure.
but i have in inventory one item as Bic his quantity as following 676,600 (shown in inventory field of item card and his detail from item ledger entry table as following
date status item quantity

what is the values in the field ‘Open’ in the Item ledger entry?
yes it open to some entries
So that entries are preventing to change the base unit of measure. What you can do is go to the application work sheet and apply the entries each other as you required. You can remove the application and apply again. once all the entries have been closed then you will be able to change the Base UOM.
if i go to item journal then make negative adjustment until remaining to every entry is 0 then enter these entries to program again are this will give me true result
as your inventory for the item is zero and if you post the negative adjustment again then the result will be negative inventory. so i suggest to use the application work sheet and close all the open entries by applying.
Why not create another item with correct unit of measure and transfer inventory from old item to new and block the old item.
by reclass hournal or by what
OK I understand what you mean .but if i make by item journal are this way also true or not
I go to item card then select item - entries -application worksheet then i go to every entry then view - applied entries then make remove application then ok but no affect are you know why it not affect
When you remove the application for an entry then the Open field for all the applied entries for that particular entry will be ‘Yes’. Now you need to reapply the entries again.
after you do this there will not be any entry with the Open field ’ Yes’
