Posting in Inventory Transfer Journal by code

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi there,

first, I have to tell I'm new in AX (started 3 weeks ago) and I'm not english speaker so sorry for that.

I'm doing a form to transfer item from one wmsLocation to another without using the implemented solution (so the final user can do it faster, no need to precise all information that dont change).

I've done my form all is ok but now it's time to post the result in the inventory transfer journal. I have found some code on web (https://community.dynamics.com/ax/b/axaptavsme/archive/2013/07/17/inventory-transfer-journal-through-x-code) and all exemple I found are exactly the same (the one linked).

The problem is compiler tell me there is an error in this code and I cant debug because I dont really understand all this code and I didnt found any explanation about "how build journal entry in code", only found this code without comment.

ttsbegin; 
inventJournalTable.clear();
num = new NumberSeq();
num = NumberSeq::newGetNum(InventParameters::numRefTransferId());
inventJournalTable.initFromInventJournalName(InventJournalName::find(InventParameters::find().TransferJournalNameId));
inventJournalTable.Description = "Inventory Transfer Journal";
inventJournalTable.SystemBlocked = true;
inventJournalTable.insert();
inventJournalTrans.clear();
inventJournalTrans.initFromInventJournalTable(inventJournalTable);
    
inventJournalTrans.ItemId = CtrlItemId.text();
    
frominventDim.InventLocationId = CtrlLocId.text();
frominventDim.inventSiteId = CtrlSiteId.text();
frominventDim.wMslocationid = CtrlLocFrom.text();
    
toInventDim.InventLocationId = CtrlLocId.text();
toInventDim.InventSiteId = CtrlSiteId.text();
toInventDim.wmslocationid = CtrlLocTo.text();
    
toInventDim = InventDim::findOrCreate(ToinventDim); 
frominventDim = InventDim::findOrCreate(frominventDim); 
    
inventJournalTrans.InventDimId = frominventDim.inventDimId;
inventJournalTrans.initFromInventTable(InventTable::find("1101"));
inventJournalTrans.Qty = CtrlQty.value();   //Insert qty
inventJournalTrans.ToInventDimId = ToinventDim.inventDimId;
inventJournalTrans.TransDate = SystemDateget();
inventJournalTrans.insert();
inventJournalCheckPost = InventJournalCheckPost::newJournalCheckPost(JournalCheckpostType::Post,inventJournalTable);
//inventJournalCheckPost.parmThrowCheckFailed(_throwserror);
//inventJournalCheckPost.parmShowInfoResult(_showinforesult);
inventJournalCheckPost.run(); 
inventJournalTable.SystemBlocked = false;
inventJournalTable.update(); 
ttscommit;

so my first question is : has anybody any idea what is wrong with the red line ?

Here is the compiler output (in french)

8666.Capture3.PNG

It says something like : "Operand types are not compatible with the operator."

Second question : Can anybody explain this code or the logical process to use this Journal so I can understand and increase my skill in AX and not just copy pastaaaaaa.

Thank you a lot for help ! :)

    The mentioned code works perfectly while we are trying to post journal example inventory adjustments with positive quantity but while we try to do the same using negative quantity it throws the error. Has anyone faced similar scenario and have workaround for same.

    Thank you Sukrut, you lead me to the solution, here is the newJournalCheckPost method, returning a "JournalCheckPost" and NOT a "InventJournalCheckPost"

    public static server JournalCheckPost newJournalCheckPost(
    JournalCheckPostType    _journalCheckPostType,
    InventJournalTable      _inventJournalTable)
{

    JournalCheckPost journalCheckPost;

    //Here is where we get our InventJournalCheckPost

    journalCheckPost = InventJournalCheckPost::construct(_inventJournalTable);

    ...

    ...

    ...

    }

    RE: Posting in Inventory Transfer Journal by code

    Here we go, I found a solution in the deep web hahaha.

    I just switched my transaction from "inventJournalCheckPost" to "journalCheckPost" and it works (i have just some minor issue to solve)

    Here is my code for now (without declaration block).

    ttsbegin;
            inventJournalTable.clear();
            num = new NumberSeq();
            num = NumberSeq::newGetNum(InventParameters::numRefTransferId());
            inventJournalTable.initFromInventJournalName(InventJournalName::find(InventParameters::find().TransferJournalNameId));
            inventJournalTable.Description = "Inventory Transfer Journal";
            inventJournalTable.SystemBlocked = true;
            inventJournalTable.insert();
            inventJournalTrans.clear();
            inventJournalTrans.initFromInventJournalTable(inventJournalTable);

            inventJournalTrans.ItemId = CtrlItemId.text();

            frominventDim.InventLocationId = CtrlLocId.text();
            frominventDim.inventSiteId = CtrlSiteId.text();
            frominventDim.wMslocationid = CtrlLocFrom.text();

            toInventDim.InventLocationId = CtrlLocId.text();
            toInventDim.InventSiteId = CtrlSiteId.text();
            toInventDim.wMslocationid = CtrlLocTo.text();

            toInventDim = InventDim::findOrCreate(ToinventDim);
            frominventDim = InventDim::findOrCreate(frominventDim);

            inventJournalTrans.InventDimId = frominventDim.inventDimId;
            inventJournalTrans.initFromInventTable(InventTable::find(CtrlItemId.text()));
            inventJournalTrans.Qty = CtrlQty.value();   //Insert qty
            inventJournalTrans.ToInventDimId = ToinventDim.inventDimId;
            inventJournalTrans.TransDate = SystemDateget();
            inventJournalTrans.insert();
        
            journalCheckPost = inventJournalCheckPost::construct(inventJournalTable);
            journalCheckPost = inventJournalCheckPost::newJournalCheckPost(JournalCheckPostType::Post,inventJournalTable);
            journalCheckPost.parmThrowCheckFailed(_throwserror);
            journalCheckPost.parmShowInfoResult(_showinforesult);
            journalCheckPost.run();
            //inventJournalCheckPost = inventJournalCheckPost::construct(inventJournalTable);
            //inventJournalCheckPost = InventJournalCheckPost::newJournalCheckPost(JournalCheckPostType::Post,inventJournalTable);
            //inventJournalCheckPost = InventJournalCheckPost::newPostJournal(inventJournalTable);
            //inventJournalCheckPost.parmThrowCheckFailed(_throwserror);
            //inventJournalCheckPost.parmShowInfoResult(_showinforesult);
            //inventJournalCheckPost.run();
            inventJournalTable.SystemBlocked = false;
            //inventJournalTable.update();
        ttscommit;

    You have to debug the code and see what type of object is returned from newJournalCheckPost method . Did you check that?

    Hello there

    here is my declaration block :

    InventJournalTable      inventJournalTable;
InventJournalTrans      inventJournalTrans;
InventJournalCheckPost  inventJournalCheckPost;
NumberSeq               num;
boolean                 _throwserror = true;
boolean                 _showinforesult = true;
InventDim               fromInventDim,toInventDim;
;

    What type you have declared for inventJournalCheckPost  ? operand types error comes when you try to assign  something which is  not same type of variable  to the  object you are assigning. For example id you try to assign integer to string you will get this error.

    RE: Posting in Inventory Transfer Journal by code

    Above code is to create Inventory  transfer journal . First part is creation of Journal header (InventJournalTable) then assigning From inventory dimensions and To inventory dimensions (Inventory dimensions are from warehouse , To warehouse etc..) and then Create  Journal Lines (InventJournalTrans) . Once the Journal is created InventJournalCheckPost is used to post journal .

    Now regarding your error - Did you debug and checked if the error is coming from the above highlighted line or from some other line ? If you look at the  newJournalCheckPost method you will understand the run method belongs to JournalCheckPost class.
