We created XMLPort to import Employee Departments.

However we are getting error

The field No. of table Default Dimension contains a value 'XXXXX' that can not be found in related table (Employee)

Any hint please.

    Its part of the default CodeUnit 408 DimensionManagement and part of SaveDefaultDim Function

    See the error stop in which line  11

    1SaveDefaultDim(TableID : Integer;No : Code;FieldNumber : Integer;ShortcutDimCode : Code)

    2  GetGLSetup;

    3  IF ShortcutDimCode <> '' THEN BEGIN

    4    IF DefaultDim.GET(TableID,No,GLSetupShortcutDimCode[FieldNumber])

    5    THEN BEGIN

    6      DefaultDim.VALIDATE("Dimension Value Code",ShortcutDimCode);

    7      DefaultDim.MODIFY;

    8    END ELSE BEGIN

    9      DefaultDim.INIT;

    10      DefaultDim.VALIDATE("Table ID",TableID);

    11      DefaultDim.VALIDATE("No.",No); = >>>> Error Stop in this Line

    12      DefaultDim.VALIDATE("Dimension Code",GLSetupShortcutDimCode[FieldNumber]);

    13      DefaultDim.VALIDATE("Dimension Value Code",ShortcutDimCode);

    14      DefaultDim.INSERT;

    15    END;

    16  END ELSE

    17    IF DefaultDim.GET(TableID,No,GLSetupShortcutDimCode[FieldNumber]) THEN

    18      DefaultDim.DELETE;

    Is the xml port looking to handle the default dimension table? Looks like the validation code of default dimension is run before the insert(); on the employee table has run
