    Hi Xain,

    It seems like, you would have some problems with number sequences. Please Check your inventory module number sequence 》》 "Dimension Number". Right click on this numbering sequence and make sure It is non continous and no number is stuck in status list.

    Hi Xain,  you can use InventDim::FindorCreate(_invDim) function to create invent dimension.

    Hi xain,

    Can you check if the dimension number was already used before? So, is the number sequence having the correct next value?

    Can you tell if there are some other customizations in your environment, like a security policy in this table?
