Hi! Is it possible that the “Release function” in Navision 4 is not working? When I create a PO with every info: qty ordered, items, dates etc… I then change the status to release when i come back , I am able to change that quantity without any warning. I close everything , come again and the order haa kept that quantity even if the status was released. What’s going on there ??? It’s the first time that I have that. ( I mean in this version because it’s usually works). Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong??? Thanks to let me know.
Hi It works fine on the UK version, once released you have to reopen it to alter the quantity etc. Are you sure you have not had this area modified?
No, I’m prettty sure. Please steven, can you give send me the code on that, i will compare to see if it’s the same like that I will know that i’m doing something strange. That’s bas because it’s happen only at the client site not on my PC. Ps: BTW, I have another question, is it possible to change dates or anything else even if the status is released. In fact i’m wondering if the “released function” affects only “qty ordered” fileds. Thanks
It does not affect all fields on the purchase order, for example you can alter the posting date, but you would expect this. I believe all of the fields on the line require the status to be open, at least the ones you would expect. Fields on the header affecting the line like the xpected receipt date also require the status to be open. Send me a PM with your email address in it and the area of code you would like to see and I will send you the object.
Hi Steven, I just found that “Release” is working just if the type is " Item " or “Fixed asset” not gl account or item charge. That’s not good! Anyway i 'll make a change on that. Thanks anyway.
Hi Shanna Ok if you are fine with it. I admit I only did it on an item as this is the one that it makes most sense with, a GL purchase does not affect planning etc, so the controls are less likely to affect anything, still I can cerainly see it being a problem if you want the control and only order to GL accounts!
This would become very important if you are using Taxes with your G/L Accounts. I think that once you release a document with taxes, I don’t think it will allow you to change the Amounts for G/L Accounts.
Hi Chris I know there are many localisation tax differences, but in the UK if the line is GL and has VAT specified and the order is released you can alter the VAT Product posting group whilst the order is released - just in case you were interested!!
