    Hi,

    You can try below code

    // Define variables for journal template name and batch name
JournalTemplateName := 'Inventory';
BatchName := 'Batch1';

// Create a new Item Journal batch
ItemJournalBatch.SETRANGE("Journal Template Name", JournalTemplateName);
ItemJournalBatch.SETRANGE("Batch Name", BatchName);
ItemJournalBatch.INSERT;

// Create a new journal line
JournalLine.SETRANGE("Journal Template Name", JournalTemplateName);
JournalLine.SETRANGE("Journal Batch Name", BatchName);
JournalLine.INSERT;

// Populate the journal line fields
JournalLine."Gen. Bus. Posting Group" := Item."Gen. Bus. Posting Group";
JournalLine."Posting Date" := WORKDATE;
JournalLine."Item Ledger Entry Type" := ItemLedgerEntryType::Positive;
JournalLine."Document Type" := DocumentType::Item;
JournalLine."Item No." := 'ITEM001';
JournalLine."Location Code" := 'WH01';
JournalLine.Quantity := 10;

// Post the Item Journal batch
ItemJournalBatch.VALIDATE("No. of Journal Lines");
ItemJournalBatch.RUN;

    When I am posting now I am getting this issue:

    Gen. Prod. Posting Group must have a value in Item Journal Line: Journal Template Name=, Journal Batch Name=, Line No.=0. It cannot be zero or empty.

    Please validate Item No.

    Line.Validate("Item No.",'1906-S');
