    Hi Shubham,

    Instead of trying to code this, have you tried using the standard ledger allocation rule functionality to identify the 'empty' findim posting combinations and post them to the correct one?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Gunjan,

    i am writing below code but findByDimensionAttributeAndValue method giving error because we cant' pass blank value.

           inventJournalTrans.selectForUpdate(true);

           dimStorage        = DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage::find(inventJournalTrans.DefaultDimension);

           dimAttr           = DimensionAttribute::findByName(#DimensionName);

           dimAttributeValue = DimensionAttributeValue::findByDimensionAttributeAndValue(dimAttr,'' , true, true);

           dimStorage.addItem(dimAttributeValue);

           defaultDimension    = dimStorage.save();

    Hi Shubham,

    Are you sure that this is allowed in your country/region?

    If somebody would adjust posted transactions incl. findim values in my home country, there would be a lot of trouble with the auditors.

    I would recommend that you double check this with your finance team before applying your code adjustment.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Shubham,

    Please try this code and check if it works for you.

    DefaultDimensionView defaultDimensionView;
       
inventJournalTrans.selectForUpdate(true);

dimStorage        = DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage::find(inventJournalTrans.DefaultDimension);
dimAttr           = DimensionAttribute::findByName(#DimensionName);

select firstonly DisplayValue
    from defaultDimensionView
    where defaultDimensionView.Name			        == dimAttr.Name
		  && defaultDimensionView.DefaultDimension	== inventJournalTrans.DefaultDimension;    

dimAttributeValue = DimensionAttributeValue::findByDimensionAttributeAndValue(dimAttr,defaultDimensionView.DisplayValue , true, true);
dimStorage.removeDimensionAttributeValue(dimAttributeValue.RecId);
defaultDimension    = dimStorage.save();        
inventJournalTrans.DefaultDimension = defaultDimension;

inventJournalTrans.update();

    Hi Shubham,

    I just tried the code on my Dev environment and it worked fine. Can you try to debug and check where the error is being thrown from?

    DefaultDimensionView                defaultDimensionView;
DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage   dimStorage;
DimensionAttribute                  dimAttr;
DimensionAttributeValue             dimAttributeValue;
InventJournalTrans                  invJourTrans = InventJournalTrans::findInventTransId("012691", true);
DimensionDefault                    defaultDimension;

ttsbegin;

dimStorage        = DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage::find(invJourTrans.DefaultDimension);
dimAttr           = DimensionAttribute::findByName("Department");

select firstonly DisplayValue
    from defaultDimensionView
     where defaultDimensionView.Name			    == dimAttr.Name
        && defaultDimensionView.DefaultDimension	== invJourTrans.DefaultDimension;

dimAttributeValue = DimensionAttributeValue::findByDimensionAttributeAndValue(dimAttr,defaultDimensionView.DisplayValue , true, true);
dimStorage.removeDimensionAttributeValue(dimAttributeValue.RecId);
defaultDimension    = dimStorage.save();
invJourTrans.DefaultDimension = defaultDimension;

invJourTrans.update();

ttscommit;
