Is there a direct reliable Link between the transactions in these 2 tables?
I can look at Document No. and Posting Date, and there is also a field Transaction No.
But is it possible to link individual entries 1 by 1?
So every Vat Entry has a single G/L Entry??
Many thanks
No direct link available, but look at the G/L registers in Financial Management. There you can see which VAT Entries belong to which G/L Entries for a specific transaction.
Yeah that would give me a per batch relationship, but i have a requirement from a customer to remove GL Transactions and all other related transactions that do not have a specific Dimension.
Trouble is VAT Entries do not hold the Dimensions - so i was looking for a direct relationship.
Oh dear.
Thanks though
A dircet relationship is not possible as there can be many G/L entries per VAT Entry (One to many relationship)
PLEASE! Do not remove GL entries! NEVER!
Make a reverse posting instead
This is not a decision that has been taken lightly.
The Database is a copy of the Customers database - they are going through a demerger - they have Gloabl Dimension Code that signify each Division.
The Demerger requires a new database for the Demerged company with only it’s own transactions in.
The client has been on navision since 2.6 and has over 2 million G/L Entries that are “unwanted”.
Can you suggest an alternative way?
Plus the timeframe for this is very very short too.
Yes, instead of copying all g/l entries you can create them via the general journal. If you populate the VAT information fields correctly chances are the vat is correctly posted also.
It is at least worth a try I think.
