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 FromPurchaseLineToJnlLine function in the codeunit (1004) as follows:
   
   Existing code

   ...
       JobJnlLine."Line Discount Amount" :=
         ROUND("Job Line Discount Amount" * Factor,Currency."Amount Rounding Precision");
     END;
   
     JobJnlLine."Location Code" := "Location Code";
     JobJnlLine."Line Type" := "Job Line Type";
   ...

   Replacement code

   ...
         JobJnlLine."Line Discount Amount" :=
         ROUND("Job Line Discount Amount" * Factor,Currency."Amount Rounding Precision");
     END;
   
     JobJnlLine."Location Code" := "Location Code";
   
   // Add the following line.
     JobJnlLine."Bin Code" := "Bin Code";
   // End of the added line.
   
     JobJnlLine."Line Type" := "Job Line Type";
   ...

2. Change the code in the OnRun trigger in the Purch.-Post codeunit (90) as follows:
   
   Note The code to remove was added with KB 2159936, so it may or may not be necessary to change the following code.
   
   Existing code

   ...
         IF PurchLine.Type = PurchLine.Type::"Charge (Item)" THEN BEGIN
           PurchLine.TESTFIELD(Amount);
           PurchLine.TESTFIELD("Job No.",'');
         END;
   
   // Delete the following lines.
         IF (PurchLine."Job No." <> '') AND (PurchLine.Type = PurchLine.Type::Item) THEN
           PurchLine.TESTFIELD("Bin Code",'');
   // End of the deleted lines.
   ...

   Replacement code

   ...
           IF PurchLine.Type = PurchLine.Type::"Charge (Item)" THEN BEGIN
           PurchLine.TESTFIELD(Amount);
           PurchLine.TESTFIELD("Job No.",'');
         END;
   ...

3. Change the code in the PostItemJnlLine function in the Purch.-Post codeunit (90) as follows:
   
   Existing code

   ...
      IF PostWhseJnlLine THEN BEGIN
       ItemTrackingMgt.SplitWhseJnlLine(TempWhseJnlLine,TempWhseJnlLine2,TempWhseTrackingSpecification,FALSE);
       IF TempWhseJnlLine2.FIND('-') THEN
         REPEAT
           WhseJnlPostLine.RUN(TempWhseJnlLine2);
         UNTIL TempWhseJnlLine2.NEXT = 0;
   ...

   Replacement code

   ...
      IF PostWhseJnlLine THEN BEGIN
       ItemTrackingMgt.SplitWhseJnlLine(TempWhseJnlLine,TempWhseJnlLine2,TempWhseTrackingSpecification,FALSE);
       IF TempWhseJnlLine2.FIND('-') THEN
         REPEAT
           WhseJnlPostLine.RUN(TempWhseJnlLine2);
   // Add the following lines.
           IF RevertWarehouseEntry(TempWhseJnlLine2,"Job No.",PostJobConsumptionBeforePurch) THEN
             WhseJnlPostLine.RUN(TempWhseJnlLine2);
   // End of the added lines.
   
         UNTIL TempWhseJnlLine2.NEXT = 0;  
   ...

4. Add the following local function: RevertWarehouseEntry@92(VAR TempWhseJnlLine@1000 : TEMPORARY Record 7311;JobNo@1001 : Code[20];PostJobConsumptionBeforePurch@1002 : Boolean). Then, add the following code for the function:

   IF PostJobConsumptionBeforePurch OR (JobNo = '') THEN
     EXIT(FALSE);
   WITH TempWhseJnlLine DO BEGIN
     "Entry Type" := "Entry Type"::"Negative Adjmt.";
     Quantity := -Quantity;
     "Qty. (Base)" := -"Qty. (Base)";
     "From Bin Code" := "To Bin Code";
     "To Bin Code" := '';
   END;
   EXIT(TRUE);
