Posted on by thehetz 6
Hello Community, I am wondering what the Business Central AL equivalent would be to the C/Al shown in this post: Activate Item Tracking for Items with Ledger Entries in Microsoft Dynamics NAV | Olof Simren - Microsoft Dynamics NAV & 365 Business Central Blog?  We have a customer that would like this implemented for them and they are running the latest version of BC.  If there is a better a better way to do this, I would love to hear that as well.

    There is an alternative of doing this with a configuration package as well, as its easier than modifying the application. In a configuration package you can selected if a field is validated when its modified. 
     
    You would have a configuration package for the item table and have 2 fields, the item no. and the item tracking code field. In the configuration package, unselect the validation boolean for the item tracking code field.

    this is possible per other experts comments, but is not the best practice. I would recommend to either consume remaining qty of that item or adjust it out. 
    delete qty of this item on open so, po, production order etc.
    create a new item card with proper item tracking and adjust in the items. this keeps previous transactions for auditing purposes.
