Hi Champs!

I'm trying to release an item in an entity. It's giving the following error when we check in the "open product release form".

"Field 'Item number' must be filled in."

I cannot set the item number sequence to automatic as we the requirement is to put manual item numbers.

Please help.

Thanks and regards,

Ahmed.

AX don't allows you manual number sequence of Item Id. In case you don't provide item id, it takes automatically form Product Number. If you don't want to keep item number same as Product Number, you may keep a different sequence for item number, which should be automatic. Otherwise, let the item number sequence be neither manual nor continuous.

Hi Ahmed,

In addition to Sohaibs answer: Did you setup any number sequence for item numbers? What settings were done on this number sequence?

Hi Sohaib,

We want to keep the item number the same as the product number in the product master. The product number is entered manually. But it seems like AX is not picking this from the product master and so giving this error.

Hi Ahmed,

Did you setup a number sequence for the items? If you are using only one legal entity, you can also consider creating the released product directly instead of creating a global product and using the release process.

Hi Andre,

The item is released in another entity so we cannot create it manually.

Hi Ahmed,

Please go to the warehouse and management parameters. Then set focus on the number sequence tab page. Is there a number sequence linked to the item numbers? If not, create a number sequence with the scope for this company and activate the Manual option. Then link this number sequence to the Item number reference.

Then it should work like your expectations.

Hi,

As mentioned earlier, number sequence is already setup to manual and that is why this issue is there.

I resolved it by creating the item manually with a "." at the end and then changing the name back to the original product name through "record info".

Thanks and regards,

Ahmed Nurullah.

Hi ,

you could use this job to release the product ..

static void Release(Args _args)
{

EcoResProduct ecoResProduct;
EcoResProductIdentifier ecoResProductIdent;

select DisplayProductNumber,RecId from ecoResProduct where ecoResProduct.DisplayProductNumber == "123456";

//select ecoResProductIdent where ecoResProductIdent.ProductNumber == ecoResProduct.DisplayProductNumber
select ecoResProductIdent where ecoResProductIdent.Product == 123456; // check wthether the record already exits in ecoResProductIdentifier

if(!ecoResProductIdent && ecoResProduct)
{
ecoResProductIdent.Product = ecoResProduct.RecId;
ecoResProductIdent.ProductNumber = ecoResProduct.DisplayProductNumber;
ecoResProductIdent.insert();

}
}
