View products that this article applies to.

This article applies to Microsoft for all countries and all language locales.

Symptoms

You experience the following problem in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009:

After you post a Resource type job journal line or a GL Account type job journal line, the Job Posting Group field is set to blank in the corresponding job ledger entries.
After you post item consumption from a job journal, the corresponding job ledger entry uses an inventory posting group instead of a job posting group.

You expect that the system always registers a job related posting with a job posting group. This problem occurs in the following products:

Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 Service Pack 1

IF GenJnlLine."Account Type" = GenJnlLine."Account Type"::"G/L Account" THEN
JobJnlLine."Posting Group" := GenJnlLine."Account No.";
// End of the lines.
...

Replacement code

...
JobTask@1000000000 : Record 1001;
BEGIN
JobJnlLine."Job No." := GenJnlLine."Job No.";
