Resolving Issue: Project Transactions Not Created After Product Receipt in X++

Introduction

When receiving a product receipt in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations via X++ code, you might encounter a scenario where project transactions are not generated, even when a valid project ID is associated with the purchase order. Debugging revealed that the system is not calling the runProjectPostings() method of the PurchFormLetter_PackingSlip class, which prevents the project packing slip from being posted. To resolve this, I created the runRemainProjectUpdates method in the code below.

Code Implementation

Product Receipt Creation

private TestPOReceiptResponseContract createProductReceipt(TestPOReceiptRequestContract _requestContract)
{
    PurchFormLetter purchFormLetter;
    PurchParmTable purchParmTable;
    PurchParmLine purchParmLine;
    PurchFormletterParmData purchFormLetterParmData;
    TestOrderLineRequestContract orderLineContract = _requestContract.parmOrderLineContract();
    PurchTable purchTable = PurchTable::find(orderLineContract.parmPurchaseOrderId());
    PurchLine purchLine = PurchLine::find(purchTable.PurchId, orderLineContract.parmLineNumber());

    purchFormLetterParmData = PurchFormletterParmData::newData(DocumentStatus::PackingSlip, VersioningUpdateType::Initial);
    purchFormLetterParmData.parmOnlyCreateParmUpdate(true);
    purchFormLetterParmData.createData(false);

    PurchParmUpdate purchParmUpdate = purchFormLetterParmData.parmParmUpdate();

    purchParmTable.clear();
    purchParmTable.TransDate = _requestContract.parmProducReceiptDate();
    purchParmTable.Ordering = DocumentStatus::PackingSlip;
    purchParmTable.ParmJobStatus = ParmJobStatus::Waiting;
    purchParmTable.Num = _requestContract.parmCoupaId();
    purchParmTable.PurchId = purchTable.PurchId;
    purchParmTable.insert();
    
    purchParmLine.initFromPurchLine(purchLine);
    purchParmLine.ReceiveNow = _requestContract.parmTotal();
    purchParmLine.ParmId = purchParmTable.ParmId;
    purchParmLine.insert();

    purchFormLetter = PurchFormLetter::construct(DocumentStatus::PackingSlip);
    purchFormLetter.transDate(_requestContract.parmProducReceiptDate());
    purchFormLetter.run();

    // Generate project item transactions
    if (purchTable.ProjId != '')
    {
        this.runRemainProjectUpdates(purchFormLetter, purchParmTable.ParmId);
    }
    
    return this.getResponseContract("@ENG_Labels:ProductReceiptCreated", true);
}
    

Explicitly Calling runRemainProjectUpdates to Create Project Transactions

public void runRemainProjectUpdates(PurchFormLetter _purchFormLetter, ParmId _parmId)
{
    FormletterOutputContract outputContract = _purchFormLetter.getOutputContract();
    VendPackingSlipVersion localVendPackingSlipVersion;
    VendPackingSlipJour localVendPackingSlipJour;
    VendPackingSlipTrans localVendPackingSlipTrans;
    PurchLine localPurchLine;
    SalesLine localSalesLine;
    SalesFormLetter salesFormLetter;

    if (ProjParameters::find().AutomaticItemConsumption == NoYes::Yes)
    {
        select firstonly RecId, AccountingDate from localVendPackingSlipVersion
            where localVendPackingSlipVersion.ParmId == _parmId
            exists join localVendPackingSlipJour
                where localVendPackingSlipVersion.VendPackingSlipJour == localVendPackingSlipJour.RecId
                exists join localVendPackingSlipTrans
                    where localVendPackingSlipTrans.VendPackingSlipJour == localVendPackingSlipJour.RecId
                    exists join localPurchLine
                        where localPurchLine.InventTransId == localVendPackingSlipTrans.InventTransId
                        && localPurchLine.ItemRefType == InventRefType::Sales
                        exists join localSalesLine
                            where localSalesLine.InventTransId == localPurchLine.InventRefTransId
                            && localSalesLine.ProjId;

        if (localVendPackingSlipVersion.RecId)
        {
            salesFormLetter = SalesFormLetter::newFromPurchFormLetter_PackingSlip(
                SysOperationHelper::base64Encode(outputContract.parmJournalLinesPacked()),
                DocumentStatus::ProjectPackingSlip);

            if (localVendPackingSlipVersion.AccountingDate)
            {
                salesFormLetter.transDate(localVendPackingSlipVersion.AccountingDate);
            }

            salesFormLetter.runOperation();
        }
    }
}
