Changing the G/L account in a Purchase Quote

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Carlyman470 30

When I review a purchase quote from a team member and I need to change the G/L account the team member is using, Business Central deletes the line and I have to re-type the whole thing.  Is there a setting to keep Business Cental from not deleting the line?

    What I do is insert a new line under the current line. Change my GL account and then copy the other fields down, using F8. Once done and checked, I delete the first line.

    Kim is suggesting a good workaround.

    The reasoning behind this behavior is that the new G/L account you want to use can have different VAT setup, different dimensions etc. So the system needs to do a complete new validation of the line when a G/L account or and Item for that matter is changed. It can be annoying but still necessary from a system view.
