Update the "Qty. to Assign" field in Item Charge Assignment in bulk

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 55

Hi All,

Is it possible to update the "Qty. to Assign" field in Item Charge Assignment in bulk?

In our case, we often have hundreds of item lines that require item charge assignments. We need to update the Qty. to Assign field every time because Suggest Item Charge Assignment only suggests quantities, which is not suitable for our business scenario.

According to the documentation, the field can be updated manually. However, we are looking for a way to update it in bulk.

Currently:

  • Edit in Excel is not available for the Item Charge Assignment page.
  • Copy and paste is also not supported.
Is there any standard way to update the Qty. to Assign field in bulk? 
Thanks!

    Hello,

    No, standard Business Central does not provide bulk editing for Qty. to Assign on the Item Charge Assignment page; the supported options are manual entry or Suggest Item Charge Assignment using Equally, By Amount, By Weight, or By Volume. If none matches your allocation rule, this requires a small AL customization that adds an action to calculate and update the assignment lines according to your business logic.
