    You can look at MCRLedgerJournal class it creates ledger Journal and lines using "old school" way, operating directly with tables and ledgetJournalEngine.

    Another thing you can look at is LedgerJournal* data entities its a real replacement of Ax classes.

    Hi IKSIKS,

    In addition to ievgen's answer you can also use the classes JournalTableData and JournalTransData to create journals.

    Hi Andre,

    I am using JournalTableData and JournaTransData to create new line to existing journal as below however keep getting field Id 0 does not exist on journalTransData.create() method. Can you see I am missing anything in below lines.

           LedgerJournalTrans       jourTrans;

            LedgerJournalTableData   jourTableData;

            LedgerJournalStatic   jourStatic;

            JournalTransData      jourTransData;

            jourTableData = JournalTableData::newTable(_ledgerJournalTable);

            //jourTableData.journalTable(_ledgerJournalTable);

            jourTableData.initFromLedgerJournalTable(_ledgerJournalTable);

            jourTableData.initFromJournalName(LedgerJournalName::find(_ledgerJournalTable.JournalName));

            jourStatic = jourTableData.journalStatic();

            jourTransData = jourStatic.newJournalTransData(jourTrans, jourTableData);

            jourTransData.initFromJournalTable();

            jourTrans.CurrencyCode = _ledgerJournalTrans.CurrencyCode;

            jourTrans.TransDate = _ledgerJournalTrans.TransDate;

            jourTrans.parmLedgerDimension(_ledgerJournalTrans.LedgerDimension);

            jourTrans.Txt = _ledgerJournalTrans.Txt;

            jourTrans.parmOffsetLedgerDimension(_ledgerJournalTrans.OffsetLedgerDimension);

            jourTrans.AmountCurCredit = __ledgerJournalTrans.AmountCurCredit;

            jourTransData.create();

    For people having the same request I posted an interesting post about how to generate journal vouchers in AX7. Link: [View:https://community.dynamics.com/ax/b/dynamicsaxthehardway/archive/2017/10/26/how-to-generate-ledger-vouchers-using-dataentities-and-x-in-dynamics-365-for-operations]

    Hi Hichem Chekebkeb,

    Thanks for the post.

    I have used your approach. The only challenge I am facing is, My user want to give the account and offset account in display values(for eg: if ledger, mainaccount-dep-costcenter and if vendor, vendacount). So, I am stuck at how to convert those display values to ledger dimension keeping account type into consideration. Please suggest an approach for this.
