(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 5

Hello,

I am having a client who wants to have  his list of items shared between two companies such that the item list is synchronized between the two companies.

I have tried using the DataPerCompany field option but am getting an error as  shown below:

Anyone whohas a workaround on this? Kindly help.

    hello

    but you are working with nav

    did you create a custom table? or are you trying to put the DataPerCompany on the standard item table? this is not recommended

    if you create a YourItem table then in NAV you can set it as DataPerCompany=yes so that you have data common to all companies

    but the solution I recommend is to make or have made a development in which you simply synchronise items from one company to another

    an idea would be to bind to the OnAfterInsertREcord event of the item table and at that moment with a changecompany transfer it also to the other company

    remember that validates, however, do not click with the changecompany

    check my answer if it helped you, thanks

    Do not use DataPerCompany, it is not supported in BC Saas, and Universal Code...

    I suggest to look for a third party solution that can sync data between companies, there are some good ones in appSource.

    Otherwise, I suggest to investigate the PowerPlatform, to develop a sync mechanism.

    Hi Dan,

    Please try to debug it. Possible this error comes due to custom object.

    Many Thanks,
    Manan
