Posted on by Maisamali Momin

I have created application to post General Journal with default Dimension on AX system using service. But code not working and not posting any entry.

The Code that i have done for Default Dimension is as below.

AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet defaccount = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet();
AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue difdimValue1 = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue();
difdimValue1.Name = "Employees";
difdimValue1.Value = DefaultDimensionEmployees;

AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue difdimValue2 = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue();
difdimValue2.Name = "Location";
difdimValue2.Value = DefaultDimensionLocation;

defaccount.Values = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue[2] { difdimValue1, difdimValue2 };
//journalLine.DefaultDimension = defaccount;

journalLine.DefaultDimension = defaccount;

When i am trying to post this, 'i received Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

Can anyone tell me what is wrong in above code?

Waiting for reply,

Momin

Could you please use "Use rich text formatting" -> "Insert" -> "Code" when you share your code so that it's easier to read? Thanks!

Your code doesn't seem to do posting here. Do you get the exception when posting, or when running the code that you shared?

If the error comes from something that you didn't yet share, could you please consider sharing the code that fails? Also letting us know which line in the code fails would be useful. Thanks!

By the way, you say that you get error "Object not set to an instance of an object". But you just posted another question asking how to get error message from your AX service to your C# code (community.dynamics.com/.../how-to-get-error-log-from-ax-after-posting-through-c).

So, are you already getting this error message into your C# code or not?

Hi Maisamali Momin,

This error means that you are call a method or access a property on a null object.Please show your complete code.

AThere are many methods you can use to achieve your requirement.

Do you have to do it with C#?

Using DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage class in X++, this is a simpler and more general method.

Hi Will WU,

We are using the same code to post jv on AX system, which is working fine, but only when we are using default dimention its now working.

We are using C#.

Here is code with function.

Did you already find out which line in your code is causing the exception?

You could also try to debug the AX code to get more details.

HI,

try this code, I have used this code to the defaultDimension to populate from C#. I just sent you the dimension code since you said, the code was working fine before initializing default dimension

FYI ServiceReference is using POCDocService.ServiceReference;

ServiceReference.AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue dimCostCenter = new ServiceReference.AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue(); dimCostCenter.Name = "CostCenter"; dimCostCenter.Value = "1473"; ServiceReference.AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet valueSet = new ServiceReference.AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet(); valueSet.Values = new ServiceReference.AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue[1] { dimCostCenter }; inventJournalTrans.DefaultDimension = valueSet;

Thanks Mr. Uday,

I have already tried this code like,

AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet defaccount = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet(); AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue difdimValue1 = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue(); difdimValue1.Name = "Employees"; difdimValue1.Value = DefaultDimensionEmployees; AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue difdimValue2 = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue(); difdimValue2.Name = "Location"; difdimValue2.Value = DefaultDimensionLocation; defaccount.Values = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue[2] { difdimValue1, difdimValue2 }; journalLine.DefaultDimension = defaccount;

but not working.
