Unable to Change "TO DIMENSION" Financial Dimensions in Inventory Transfer Journal

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 37
 
When entering an inventory transfer journal, the "TO DIMENSION" financial dimension fields are locked for editing. Is this by design. or is there configuration(s) that must be updated to allow for changing these values before posting the journal?
 
For my issue specifically, I have a custom financial dimension called "Site" that has been associated with each of our inventory sites using dimension link. However, the "US10" dimension value (from screenshot) has been suspended for use and cannot be used in postings (this is part of a phase out of this specific site value, but transactions will still occasionally post over the next few months). In our account structures, we have configured them to allow blanks for the "Site" segment when posting, so we typically just remove the US10 value before posting the journal.

    Hi John,
     
    From my experience, the offset dimension is not enabled for editing. I haven't checked in the technical design if there are options to enable the offset dimension. At least when one or more storage dimensions are enabled for Financial tracking, the offset dimensions are still non-editable.
     
    Can you tell us if you linked the sites with the financial dimension as described on the next Learn page? Configure and manage financial dimension links to sites - Supply Chain Management | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn

    This is by design. If the Site financial dimension value is suspended, it must be replaced with or updated to an active value to allow future use in transactions.

    Hi Andre,
     
    Confirming I followed the instructions as outlined in the Learn page you linked. The current dimension link is active and unlocked in my example.

    Hi Syed,
     
    Yes, understood. My problem is the suspended value is being assigned in the transaction. Although it is expected functionality, I wish to change the "TO DIMENSION" in the journal, replacing the currently suspended financial dimension value with a blank value (since my account structures allow for it).

    Hi John,
     
    Are you trying to transfer goods to a site where the dimension value is suspended? If so, this is not supported by the standard application.

    Hi Andre,
     
    Thank you for the reply. I recognize the posting will fail, but what if the dimension was not suspended? I would still face the same issue of a dimension value that cannot be changed in the "TO DIMENSION" settings yet can be changed on the "FROM DIMENSION" settings. Is the answer simply "You cannot change any dimension value in the TO DIMENSION section on an inventory transfer journal." ?

    Hi John,

    This is indeed what I tried to explain to you in my first reply. The To Dimension are always not-editable. I haven't seen a situation where these fields were open for editing.

    Thank you, Andre. Your first reply seemed anecdotal, so I attempted to source more confident/conclusive responses. I appreciate the input and will mark your reply as the answer.
