    Try to close the NAV session and try to post the credit memo again.

    This should work.

    Allen,

    It looks like there is some customization which is causing that error, even though if you reopen and post will fix the error, you may not run into this error again. If you run into this error again check your sequence of steps to recreate and run the debugger, you need to a piece of code to re-read the record before posting.

    Thanks

    Thank you Suresh.

    We never encountered the error before.  Finally, we found that the user put wrong information in the Credit Memo. After re-creating the document, we were able to post it.

    Your suggestion is very helpful for further monitoring.

    Hi All,

    I'm also getting same error when i'm posting sales order.

    I have restarted my instance and tried to post still getting same error.

    when i debug Its pointing standard code (Modify).

    After merging IN7.1_TFS228390 (Phase 3) I'm getting this issue but the phase 3 is working fine in Cronus DB. 

    But i can post the sales invoices normally.

    Please guide me to sole this issue.

    Thanks in advance
