We are building our nav 2013 database from scratch and am in the testing/building phase. I have created a few customer and a few stock items. I am now trying to raise a sales order but am hitting this message when I go to enter the item on the sales line:
‘TYPE MUST BE EQUAL TO ‘G/L ACCOUNT’ IN SALES LINE:DOCUMENT TYPE=ORDER, DOCUMENT NO.=SOR000002 LINE NO.=0. CURRENT VALUE IS ITEM’
I have got stock of the item in and have checked all the inventory posting groups/posting groups and they are all filled in and seem to be correct. Strange as we were able to put stock lines on the other day but now I get this error with every item and every customer.
The Line type is set to ‘item’ and then when I try and select an item I get that error message.
Do you have your GENERAL POSTING SETUP entered, this may be what is triggering the error if you do not have all of these fields filled in with your g/l account number.
Yes I have tripled checked the GENERAL POSTING SETUP and all codes are completed. We are still using NAV 2009 and are upgrading, I am testing things for users though before anything happens. Although we have been left to build the company up so we can see what we need/use (which is fine) except for all the error messages!!
I have checked the General posting setup and all fine there.
Anil - no customizations, we are simply building a shell company from scratch. Not quite sure what you mean by debug and show the code that is causing this?
I had this error myself today, and I did the debug to see where the error was triggered
The error in my situation, with the exact same message, was that I had set the ‘VAT Posting Group’ > ‘VAT Calculation Type’ to ‘Full VAT’ instead of '‘Normal VAT’. The ‘Full VAT’ is only valid witn line of the type of ‘G/L Account’.
I changed from ‘Full’ to ‘Normal’, and everything works fine.
