[Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Re: Excel templates for Uploading opening Stock
Hi Ashwani, Thanks for such a detailed information which would be useful to all our fellow implementors. I could successfully upload the opening stock using InventJournalTable, InventJournalTrans and InventTrans. I have not included InventDim as the DimGroupIds of all the items already exists in InventDim table. I have to include InventTrans as I was getting an error that there should be transaction with status "Ordered". I have included InventTrans table with status Ordered of all the items. I have uploaded and then posted the Movement Journal. Now when you see the on-hand inventory you will see the items in Ordered as negative witht he quantity uploaded. Then I went to InventSum table and changed all those negative entries to "0". I have tested master scheduling and other functionalities. Its working fine. Please reply whether this is ok. As you have used a word "malfunctioing" I am worried. Awaiting your reply.

Re: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Re: Excel templates for Uploading opening Stock
Hi Madhu, Uploading the opening stock using manual activity is really a tedious job, but yes we can do a partial time saving for the creation of journal (Invent journal) and journal lines (Invent journal trans). At the time of creation of record in journal lines (Inventory journal Trans), system automatically search for inventdim and if not found, then create a new record in InventDim, else allocate the available one on the InventJournalTrans. After the creation of new record in InventDim, same numbr is allcoated to respective transaction based on Dimension combination. Different inventJournalTrans lines can have same inventDim id. So in addition to above two tables, you have to import another third table "InventDim". Now the question arises, how to pick / define the correct InventDim in the import file in Table InventJournalTrans, as this table does not have Dimensions (config, color, size, warehouse, location etc...) Because system allocates, this on the basis of unique combination of dimension, so in excel using concatenate formula, create a new column and put formula in that to get value. Now there must be unique values in this field (refer above bold sentence). Filter out the duplicates, and now you should have single record of each type. Take the current data of InventDim table to Excel by copy paste. Do same concatenate column in this worksheet also in excel. now using the Vlookup formula of Excel, check in earlier inventdim, what is the inventdim of those records. you will find some records / rows in excel where you will not get any inventdim. Take those records in new worksheet for import in inventdim. When you import these records, system will create the inventdim id for those records. Put these new alocated number along with the previous that you find in the InventJournalTrans. Now you can import InventJournal and InventJournalTran Tables. After importing them, ensure that all lines will be having inventdim id and cross validate for the dimensions (config, color, size, warehouse, location etc...) in them for 5 - 10 records. If found satisfactory, then you just have to click the Post button. System will post the same in inventTrans and inventsum, to update the inventory. We should not have to import the records in InventTrans / InventSum, because these tables are the heart of Dynamics Ax, which may later on result in malfunctioning of the system. This whole lenghty explaination appears to be difficult / complicated, but once you do it, you will find it as the easiest and quicker exercise. In case you need any further assitance, do write to me.

Re: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Re: Excel templates for Uploading opening Stock
Hi Madhu, Am not exactly sure why this error is coming. The best way to load opening balances is thru Movement journal only. I wud not guess the reason for this error as this error information is not descriptive enough.. u can try and to debug and see from where this error is coming and on what condition. Do let me know if u come to know anything on this front. One more thing if you are posting Movement journal then u need to have data in InventJournalTable (Movement journal header) and InventJournalTrans (Movement journal line). You need not create records in InventSum. It will be taken care while posting the Movement journal also enure that the Inventory dimensions id that u will provide in InventJournalTrans exists before you post the records.
