Copying Released Products from one Legal Entity to a newly created Legal Entity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 1,339

Hi All, 

I have created a new legal entity and now i am willing to copy released products from an existing legal entity to this newly created legal entity 

I have already tried to go to all products and product masters and release from there. It did not work

I need to simply export/copy released products from one legal entity to the newly created legal entity

is there any simple solution for that

Regards

Yousaf

    Hello Yousaf,

    The correct way of doing that would be to go to the product master and release it to the new company where you have to complete the setup.

    You mentioned that this did not work.

    Can you explain why and what steps you executed?

    Many thanks,

    Ludwig

    Hi Yousaf,

    With help of the Data Import Export Framework, you can copy entity data from one legal entity to another. You can use this to copy the product. Please test and verify it in a test environment first.

    Hi Ludwig, thank you for your reply....

    Initially when we started AX the products were like 10000001, and this product was releasing like HMS10000001, later on due to some reason it was customised and now the product it self is being created like HMSxxxxxxxx. Now when i release the products to the newly created legal entity, it is releasing but it is releasing both the codes to new legal entity like 1000001 and HMS000000 as well

    My requirement is to have HMSxxxx codes only

    I hope you understand - Now how to copy the released product from an existing legal entity to the newly created legal entity

    Regards

    Yousaf

    Releasing product is correct way to share it in legal entity . If you have customization around this area you should check it first.

    Hi Yousaf,

    Fully agree with Sukrut here. You have to check your customization first and investigate what this customization is doing.

    Best regards,

    I tried the Data Import / Export Framework and here is the error messages

    Error for Target

    Result. Items. HMS : 30092 records copied to staging

    Result. Results. Record ('HMS000001') . Cannot create a record in Inventory module parameters (InventTableModule). Module type: Inventory.

    The record already exists.

    Result. Results. Record ('HMS000002') . Cannot create a record in Inventory module parameters (InventTableModule). Module type: Inventory.

    The record already exists.

    xxxxx

    xxxx

    xxxx

    But believe me these items do not exist in the released products of the Target Company

    Error for the Source

    Result. Items. HMS : 30092 records copied to staging

    Hi Muhammad,

    Have you checked if the target company was set correct? Did you setup virtual companies with table collections for the InventTableModule table? Are you aware of some customization which might have a side effect? Have you tried to debug the error?

    Hi Muhammad,

    I'm trying to help as I don't know from which company to what company you tried to copy the released products and with what exact parameters and setup data. It was not an answer, but a request for more details. Would it be able for you to find some more details? A developer would be able to assist you to get some answers out of your environment.

    Will update accordingly
