importing inventory journal description is not working

Posted on by 85

We're using DIXF to import inventory transfers.  We're importing the description field.  I see the description that we are trying to import when I do a preview.  But when we run the import, it is not importing the description.  When I view the inventory transfer the description after the import , it is showing the default journal name in the description field.  Am I missing something?  Thanks.

    The method generateJournalLink is not using the Description field. You can change the coding and add a line directly after:

    inventJournalTable.initFromInventJournalName(inventJournalName);


    Insert the next line: 

    inventJournalTable.Description = entity.Description;

    Mapping looks correct, description should map to method 'generateJournalLink', you can review the mapping visualization. I would recommend to debug, class name - DmfInventJournalEntityClass

    Thanks for the responses.  Yes we can manually change the description after the import.

    Looks like the staging to target mapping needs to be modified.  Can this be easily modified?

    Thanks.

    Hi nmirhan,

    If you create an inventory transfer manually can you actually enter or modify the description? What field is that in the form and is this the description that will be used in the voucher? I would assume that you cannot enter and modify this field. Would be great if you could share some more details.

    Thanks,

    Ludwig

    Hi nmirhan,

    Have you checked if the field is correctly mapped from source to staging and staging to target? Have you looked at possible enabled business logic which could overwrite the value by standard methods?
