I want to add business posting group to the existing sales invoice header & sales invoice line table.
I have added the following permission set to a super user.
Added this permission to the super user.
Now, When I want to modify the invoice header & line I got the following error.
.
You do not have the following permission on TableData Sales Invoice Header: Modify.
How can I get the permission to modify the above 2 tables.
Need to cancel/ credit memo some of the posted sales invoice. When I want to do this, the above error occurred.
Then I have to ask. Why is that important?
The Posted Invoice Header and Lines table exist only for one purpose, and that is to be able to recreate (print) a historic Invoice.
As soon as the Invoice has been printed once (the "Printed" field > 0), the Posted Invoice can be deleted.
A Posting group field, that is empty has no significance whatsoever.
Don't know how its posted. But, from the exported table, I can see that the posting group is empty. Thats why I need to add at least one posting group to that field. And, there is only one posting group.
You can modify selected information on posted documents, and entries. It is even implemented in the standard application. Look at how you can change the Due Date field on Customer G/L Entries for example.
However, you should be very cautious, if you implement such a function at a customer site, for the reasons mentioned in the two previous posts.
But, to do it you need to create object, for example a page, where you allow the user to input the information to change. The page object must have the permission to change the posted invoice header, and also the user must have the permission. You could say, that the user brings half the permission, and the object brings the other half, so in combination the change is allowed. This way you can alsy, by setting up permissions, decide which users are allowed to make changes to posted documents.
For inspiration, check out how Microsoft have implemented the possibility to change Due Date and On Hold in, for example. There the page itself has the permissions to modify existing Ventor Entries, and the majority of controls on the page are write protected (Editable = FALSE). However, the fields, that the user must be allowed to change are Editable = TRUE
User shouldn't be allowed to modify posted document for audit purpose. That is why it is being restricted that way. Why do you want to change the Business Posting Group ? Business Posting Group has an impact on the GL that got posted. If you change that, you will lose your audit trail.
You cannot modify posted documents, since they are just that: posted documents that are not supposed to be modified. Especially anything that would change the amounts or the accounts the data was posted to should not be changed. If you want to change some descriptive fields that do not change anything "of importance", you can do that, but you have to follow the same pattern that is used anywhere else in the system.
You have to make the changes in a codeunit (preferably) that you are giving specific modify permissions to those objects. You would define this in the "Permissions" properly of the codeunit. In this case, you would define TableData "Sales Invoice Header" = rm; (for read and modify).
But you have to be very careful, especially with changing posting groups - those are used to determine the accounts used for posting and, if you change them, you might not have a clean audit trail anymore what was posted where and why.
