Nav 2017 Error trying to uncheck No Stockkeeping

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 8
To start, from everything I've read, it looks like our system wasn't utilized properly according to documentation so now I'm trying to fix some things in the system but keep getting errors.  The one big issue is this:
 
- Items were migrated from old ERP with physical counts
- Instead of marking /inventory value zero/ for our items that had part numbers but we didn't track cost on, they were marked as /No Stockkeeping/
- Since /No Stockkeeping/ was enabled, the basic quantity on hand shows 0 but if you look in /Bin Contents/, you can see quantities
- I want to uncheck /No Stockkeeping/ to enable quantity on hand counts but mark them as /inventory value zero/; however, when I try to uncheck /No Stockkeeping/, I get the following error:
 
- We have been buying this item for years, multiple times per year so there's definitely invoiced purchase orders.
- This happens on every item I try to uncheck /no Stockkeeping/
 
 
I've googled extensively and cannot find this error in any of the help forums.
I have the same question (0)

    Hi, this is just some details associated with the master data. You cannot modify some fields because there is standard validation by default.
    Although this is not a very good method, I hope the following information can give you some hints. The same processing method can also be used in NAV.

    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    go to the item card and check if the qty on purchase or sales order has a value. then either delete the order line or invoice as needed. nav doesn't allow you to change setting with qty on such orders
