Descriptions not posted to general ledger entries

Posted on by 329

By standard design, if there are two lines with the same GL account on purchase invoice, the system posts only one line to general ledger entries or if it posts two lines, it only uses the first line's description on both lines. One way around this is to assign different dimensions for each line. Is anyone aware of any other solutions besides dimension? And is it the same in all current NAV version?

If not, I guess the only way would be to modify.

Thank you!

    When posting, document lines are aggregated using table Invoice Post. Buffer: if at least one of the primary key fields value differ from an existing record, a new G/L Entry record is created.

    To improve the detail of general ledger entry records, my solution was adding a new field "Line No." to the primary key in order to have a 1:1 correspondence between invoice lines and general ledger entries lines.
