Mandatory dimension fields when making post out of a purchase quote

Posted on by Community Member

When creating a purchase order and trying to post and invoice it, an error is thrown if the mandatory dimension is left blank.

This is not the case when a purchase quote is to be made a post.

I would like to add the functionality of not allowing a user to make a post out of a purchase quote when dimensions are left blank.

From what i have found this functionality is present in the "Purch. -Post" codeunit (ID 90) and i need to add it to

"Purch-Quote to Order" codeunit (ID 96).

Could you please show me the way to achieve this?

Thank you!

You don't post a purchase quote, you just convert that to order and while posting it will check the dimensions. If you need to add that during conversion then you can call the function CheckDim from the Posting Codeunit in the codeunit 96

Thank you for the response! Yes i need to add that during conversion. Calling CheckDim in the OnRun of Codeunit 96 doesn't work for some reason. Conversion is proceeding without a problem. Any help is appreciated!

I had to change the scope of CheckDim to Global at Codeunit 90 in order to call it from codeunit 96. In debug mode it normally gets inside the function but it just gets through the 3 subfunctions inside CheckDim without throwing the error. Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

It is because of the Temp Purchase Lines which are empty and while it is checking lines it uses Temp Global and also it will execute only when Qty. to Receive or Invoice is not equal to zero. I would suggest copying those functions into custom codeunit and remove that condition in CheckDimLines and also add your own function to copy to Temp.

Thank you for your help. I managed to do it. I used 'FillTempLines' from Codeunit 90 too as you mentioned. I completely removed the if statement in 'CheckDimLines' and everything is working.
