Code changes

Note Always test code fixes in a controlled environment before you apply the fixes to your production computers.
To resolve this problem, follow these steps:

1. Change the code in the UnApply function in the Item Jnl.-Post Line codeunit (22) as follow:
   Existing code

   ...
   //Delete the following lines.
         IF Item."Costing Method" = Item."Costing Method"::Average THEN BEGIN
           IF Application.Fixed THEN BEGIN
             ValueEntry.SETCURRENTKEY("Item Ledger Entry No.");
             ValueEntry.SETRANGE("Item Ledger Entry No.",CostItemLedgEntry."Entry No.");
             ValueEntry.SETRANGE("Valued By Average Cost",FALSE);
             ValueEntry.MODIFYALL("Valued By Average Cost",TRUE);
           END;
         END;
   //End of the lines.

   Replacement code

   //Add the following lines.
         IF Item."Costing Method" = Item."Costing Method"::Average THEN
           IF Application.Fixed THEN
             UpdateValuedByAverageCost(CostItemLedgEntry."Entry No.",TRUE);
   //End of the lines.
   
   ...

2. Change the code in the ReApply function in the Item Jnl.-Post Line codeunit (22) to the following:

   ...
         TotalAppliedQty := 0;
         CostApplication := FALSE;
         IF ApplyWith <> 0 THEN BEGIN
           ItemLedgEntry2.GET(ApplyWith);
   ...
             UpdateLinkedValuationDate(ValueEntry."Valuation Date",GlobalItemLedgEntry."Entry No.",GlobalItemLedgEntry.Positive);
           END;
   
   //Add the following lines.
           IF ItemApplnEntry.Fixed AND (ItemApplnEntry.CostReceiver <> 0) THEN    
             IF Item.GET(ItemLedgEntry."Item No.") THEN                           
               IF Item."Costing Method" = Item."Costing Method"::Average THEN     
                 UpdateValuedByAverageCost(ItemApplnEntry.CostReceiver,FALSE);    
   //End of the lines.
   
         END ELSE
         BEGIN  // ApplyWith is 0
   ...

3. Create a new UpdateValuedByAverageCost function in the Item Jnl.-Post Line codeunit (22). To create this function, follow these steps:

   1. Create the new function as follow:

      UpdateValuedByAverageCost(CostItemLedgEntryNo : Integer;ValuedByAverage : Boolean);

   2. Add a new local variable, and then specify the variable as follows:

      • Name: ValueEntry

      • DataType: Record

      • Subtype: Value Entry (5802)

   3. Add the code as follows:

          BEGIN
            IF CostItemLedgEntryNo = 0 THEN
              EXIT;
      
            ValueEntry.SETCURRENTKEY("Item Ledger Entry No.");
            ValueEntry.SETRANGE("Item Ledger Entry No.",CostItemLedgEntryNo);
            ValueEntry.SETRANGE("Valued By Average Cost",NOT ValuedByAverage);
            ValueEntry.MODIFYALL("Valued By Average Cost",ValuedByAverage);
          END;
      ...

4. Change the code in the CreateItemJNLLinefromEntry function in the Item Jnl.-Post Line codeunit (22) as follow:
   Existing code

   ...
   //Delete the following line.
   Quantity := NewQuantity;
    ...

   Replacement code

   ...
   //Add the following line. 
   Quantity := Signed(NewQuantity); 
   
   ...
