Help to change account of ADJUST COST batch job!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all!

Please help me to solve the problem. Navision uses "Inventory Adjustment Account" field (table 252 - General Posting Setup) during posting inventory adjustments (positive and negative). I want to change this, I need that program must use another field in different table.

 In cu5802 (Inventory Posting To G/L) I found this.

SetAccNo(VAR GenJnlLine : Record "Gen. Journal Line";InvtPostBuf : Record "Invt. Posting Buffer")

WITH InvtPostBuf DO BEGIN

  IF UseInvtPostSetup(InvtPostBuf) THEN

    InvtPostSetup.GET("Posting Group 1","Posting Group 2")

  ELSE

    GenPostingSetup.GET("Posting Group 1","Posting Group 2");

  ..... .....

"Account Type"::"Inventory Adjmt.":

  BEGIN

    GenPostingSetup.TESTFIELD("Inventory Adjmt. Account");

    GenJnlLine."Account No." := GenPostingSetup."Inventory Adjmt. Account";

  END;

..... .....

but simple replacement of the value doesn't work.

 

To be honest it sounds like quite an invasive modification. I would maybe look at creating a journal to move values from one account to another as opposed to hacking the Navision costing model.

Forst explain why you need to do this? It apears that you would have accounts out of balance if you did this, and maybe you just have the posting groups setup wrongly.

The only time I have ever had to change the accounts like you are suggestion was prior to version 3.00, when inventory posting group setup did not exist, and I had clients that needed the functionality that is now available as standard in NAV.
