Posted on by AntonioKD 416

Hello everyone! 
I have a question about situation with items in NAV2018.
Namely, my users wrongly created new item card without Item Tracking Code. This resulted in the receipt of 5 items of stock without serial numbers. Now, of course we can not enter Item Tracking Code for this items because they have created Item Ledger Enttries. Do you know any way that I can enter this Item Tracking Code and correct Item Ledger Entries entering correct serial numbers to them? Now this receipt has one ILE dor 5 pieces, not 5 ILE with 1 pieces and serial numbers. How to divide it? 

This happend with 2 items, and with the second the situation is more complicated because I have also one shipment posted for this ite :( 

Than you guys in advance!

    Hi! We made a similar mistake and are on NAV2017.  Our partner had us create new items with the correct setup, and then we used neg and pos adjustments to move the material from the old/bad item to the new item.  We then blocked the old/bad item.  I'm not sure if this would work for your situation.  .

    the previous response by Brett is correct. User cannot modify item tracking once item entry was created. follow the suggestion you will be fine.
