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 InsertBufferBalAcc function in the FA Insert G/L Account codeunit (5601) as follows:
    Existing code
    ...
    FAGLPostBuf."FA Allocation Type" := "Allocation Type";
                FAGLPostBuf."FA Allocation Line No." := "Line No.";
                IF NewAmount <> 0 THEN BEGIN

    // Delete the following line.
                 FADimMgt.CheckFAAllocDim(FAAlloc);

                  InsertBufferEntry;
                END;
              UNTIL NEXT = 0;
    ...
    Replacement code
    ...
    FAGLPostBuf."FA Allocation Type" := "Allocation Type";
                FAGLPostBuf."FA Allocation Line No." := "Line No.";
                IF NewAmount <> 0 THEN BEGIN

    // Add the following line.
                 FADimMgt.CheckFAAllocDim(FAAlloc,JnlLineDimTmp);

                  InsertBufferEntry;
                END;
              UNTIL NEXT = 0;
    ...
  2. Change the code in the CheckFAAllocDim in the FADimensionManagement codeunit (5674) as follows:
    Existing code
    ...
    UNTIL TempSelectedDim2.NEXT = 0;
        END;

    // Delete the following line.
       PROCEDURE CheckFAAllocDim@5(VAR FAAlloc@1000 : Record 5615);

        VAR
          DimMgt@1001 : Codeunit 408;
          FAAllocDim@1002 : Record 5648;
    ...
    Replacement code
    ...
    UNTIL TempSelectedDim2.NEXT = 0;
        END;

    // Add the following line.
       PROCEDURE CheckFAAllocDim@5(VAR FAAlloc@1000 : Record 5615;VAR TempJnlLineDim2@1005 : TEMPORARY Record 356);

        VAR
          DimMgt@1001 : Codeunit 408;
          FAAllocDim@1002 : Record 5648;
    ...
  3. Change the code in the CheckFAAllocDim function in the FADimensionManagement codeuint (5674) as follows:
    Existing code
    ...
    TempJnlLineDim."Dimension Value Code" := FAAllocDim."Dimension Value Code";
              TempJnlLineDim.INSERT;
            UNTIL FAAllocDim.NEXT = 0;
          IF NOT DimMgt.CheckJnlLineDimComb(TempJnlLineDim) THEN
            ERROR(
              Text000,
    ...
    Replacement code
    ...
    TempJnlLineDim."Dimension Value Code" := FAAllocDim."Dimension Value Code";
              TempJnlLineDim.INSERT;
            UNTIL FAAllocDim.NEXT = 0;

    // Add the following lines.
         IF TempJnlLineDim2.FINDSET THEN
           REPEAT
             FAAllocDim.SETRANGE("Dimension Code",TempJnlLineDim2."Dimension Code");
             IF FAAllocDim.ISEMPTY THEN BEGIN
               TempJnlLineDim."Dimension Code" := TempJnlLineDim2."Dimension Code";
               TempJnlLineDim."Dimension Value Code" := TempJnlLineDim2."Dimension Value Code";
               TempJnlLineDim.INSERT;
             END;
           UNTIL TempJnlLineDim2.NEXT = 0;
    // End of the added lines.

          IF NOT DimMgt.CheckJnlLineDimComb(TempJnlLineDim) THEN
            ERROR(
              Text000,
