Item Shpt. Entry No. must be equal to '0' when posting (receiving/invoicing) PO

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 338

Receiving the following message when posting a PO (receive and post).  

Client has already received on the PO.

This PO has 13 lines with quantity > 0 and 3 lines with quantity < 0.

If I remove the Qty. to Receive for the three negative lines, I can post.  Otherwise, I receive the message.

Item Shpt. Entry No. must be equal to '0' in Item Journal Line: Journal Template Name=, Journal Batch Name=, Line No.=0. Current value is '7202'.
I have the same question (0)

    Hi, I have tested the posting with the quantity less than 0 before, as long as the total amount is greater than 0, it can be posted.

    It seems that part of the account has been posted in the background. Are there any customizations in this environment?

    And hope the following can give you some hints.

    The total amount is greater than 0.  In testing I've duplicated the issue but taking the following steps:

    1) Create a PO with 2 lines:

          First line is for an item with qty = 2

          Second line is for the same item with qty = -1

    2)  Receive (post) the following  -- this works

          First line, receive 1

          Second line, receive -.5

    3)  Receive a second time (post) the following  --  receive the above error

          First line, receive 1

          Second line, receive -.5 or anything

    Here is the actual error:

    Item Shpt. Entry No. must be equal to '0'  in Item Journal Line: Journal Template Name=, Journal Batch Name=, Line No.=0. Current value is '6679'.

    Are there anything special with the PO is it connected to a direct delivery sales order or something like that?

    And do you have any customization in your system?

    No to both questions.  One thing that might be of interest, it is associated to a job.

    I've replicated it on multiple test PO's

    The job connection is a good clue.

    Are you in BC online or BC on-prem?

    Online.  

    I just tested without a Job and it worked.  So, it appears to be related to the linked job or linking to a job.

    Hi, I think you can ask your developers to debug it so you can find the standard controls.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.
