How to update the item ledger entries in the database ?

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by LLEV 73
Hello,
 
Unfortunately our item ledger entries have been created with the wrong "Posting Date" and I would like to update them with the "SystemCreatedAt" Date. Is there a way to update the value stored in the database not simply for the reports?
 
Thanks in advance,
Ludovic

    This may cause data inconsistency if you modify it directly from the code.
    But technically, it is possible.
    As with the standard, you only need to add the Permisions property to the executed code.
     
    Hope this helps as well.
    Thanks.

    the proper way is create a credit memo to reverse it and then create a new one with correct posting date

    Thanks you both for your prompt answer.
    GR: This is a great post and I'll definitely keep it in my marks, but in my case I was looking for a mass update solution like Gokulnath proposed even though I understand it is definitely not recommended.

    Hi
    In this case you need to reverse the operation, we are not only talking about the item ledger entry table.
    Please revise.

    Hi, 

    If your are a developer, 

    Create a processOnly report 
    Select dataItem as Item Ledger Entry. 
     
     trigger OnAfterGetRecord()
     
    use this trigger write a code for updating the posting date as system created date 
    item ledger entry modify. 
    provide permission for item ledger entry in the Permission property. 
    but changing this will impact the difference between ledger and subledger. 

    Correct way to do this reversing and posting the document again. 

    Thanks 
    Gokulnath
