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

Thanks Nikolaos and Uday for your instant support regarding the issue.

Finally we found that it was data entry mistake from our client side and also have minor changes in code and its resolved.

Thanks & Regards,

Please realize that we can't help you if you fail to give us necessary information.

Which line of code is throwing the exception. And which reference is null?

We have changed the code as below, but it gives again Object Reference error.

We tried to set ledgerdimension.Account Property and assign it to JournlLine assuming that it will take the account Name, but

unfortunately it is throwing object reference error.

AxdType_MultiTypeAccount ledgerDimension = new AxdType_MultiTypeAccount(); ledgerDimension.Account = LedgerDimensionMainAccount;//"7101"; // Give the account number ledgerDimension.DisplayValue = LedgerDimensionMainAccountName;//"Staff salaries & Wages"; journalLine.LedgerDimension = ledgerDimension; if (journalLine.AccountType == AxdEnum_LedgerJournalACType.Cust) { //AxdType_MultiTypeDefaultAccount defaultDimension = new AxdType_MultiTypeDefaultAccount(); //defaultDimension.Account = LedgerDimensionMainAccount; AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSet defDimension = 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 }; defDimension.Values = new AxdType_DimensionAttributeValue[1] { difdimValue1 }; //journalLine.LedgerDimension = ledgerDimension; journalLine.DefaultDimension = defDimension; //journalLine.DefaultDimension = 5637147626; //AxdType_DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage dimStorage; }

Perhaps this discussion helps: stackoverflow.com/.../general-journal-aif-services-cant-import-offsets-account-of-type-customers-ax

Although it says that AX itself seems to support only account types Ledger and Bank when using this service. But it also says that you might be able to make a customization in AX to enhance it.

There should be value 'EMP0104' in Account field.

Ok, and would you want to have some value in the Account field?

Could you please verify with the AX team what is the expected outcome here. Only then it makes sense to discuss possible adjustments to the code.
