Posted on by NDingankar22 515

Hi All,

Greetings

I am new to Ax 2012 and need your help on the following

I need to change the invoice number for *****1from “9819”  to “8919”?   (change 98 to 89)

Just need to change  the field as it was by mistake inputted  as 98 instead of 89.(go to Vendor-select vendor-tax invoice journal-Tax invoice field)

The customer wants to change on the path mentioned above and also on the goods received note form.

I want to know  if i change which all places will be impacted.  i.e any other functionality will be impacted if I make changes from backend.

Also is there any functionality in AX 2012 which i can use to see what all gets impacted because of a change

Regards

N

    Hi NDingankar22 ,

    Posted document cannot be changed. You don't need to do any backend activity here as it is not recommended.

    You can simply reverse the posted transaction in the same manner it was posted earlier. Then post new entry with correct data.

    If this is journal, then create reversal journal and post it. In reversal journal, you have to flip the amount. Means; whatever was Debited, should be Credited this time. Then create a new journal with corrected data and post it.

    If this is purchase order (and if this is already invoiced with wrong data); create a return order same as it was posted wrongly and invoiced it. Then create a new purchase order with appropriate invoice number and post it.

    In return order, you have to set the quantity in negative (-ve).

    Best regards,
    Sourav Dam

    Hello N,

    Fully agree with Sourav Dam.

    Don't try to manipulate the data somehow in the database but go the 'hard' way and record a correction posting.

    If you manipulate the date in the back and your auditors or somebody else finds out then you might get into serious trouble.

    In my country this is considered a falsification of a business document, which comes with a penalty similar to robbing somebody...

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
