Symptoms

When you post a sales invoice, a sales order, a purchase invoice, or a purchase order that has a 100 percentage line discount in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 Service Pack 1 (SP1), general ledger entries are incorrect.

This problem occurs when the Line Amount, the Line Discount amount, the VAT Base amount and the "Amount Including VAT" amount are set to zero.

Code changes

Note Always test code fixes in a controlled environment before you apply the fixes to your production computers.

To install this hotfix, change the code in the following objects:

The Sales Line table (37)
The Purchase Line table (39)
The Sales-Post codeunit (80)
The Purch.-Post codeunit (90)

To do this, follow these steps:

Change the code in the ZeroAmountLine function in the Sales Line table (37) as follows:
Existing code

          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF Quantity = 0 THEN
          EXIT(TRUE);
        
        IF ("Unit Price" = 0) OR ("Line Discount %" = 100) THEN // Delete this line.
       
          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF QtyType = QtyType::Invoicing THEN
          IF "Qty. to Invoice" = 0 THEN

Replacement code

          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF Quantity = 0 THEN
          EXIT(TRUE);
        
        IF ("Unit Price" = 0) THEN // Add this line.

          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF QtyType = QtyType::Invoicing THEN
          IF "Qty. to Invoice" = 0 THEN

Change the code in the ZeroAmountLine function in the Purchase Line table (39) as follows:
Existing code

          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF Quantity = 0 THEN
          EXIT(TRUE);
        
        IF ("Direct Unit Cost" = 0) OR ("Line Discount %" = 100) THEN // Delete this line.

          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF QtyType = QtyType::Invoicing THEN
          IF "Qty. to Invoice" = 0 THEN

Replacement code

EXIT(TRUE);
        IF Quantity = 0 THEN
          EXIT(TRUE);
        
        IF ("Direct Unit Cost" = 0) THEN  // Add this line.

          EXIT(TRUE);
        IF QtyType = QtyType::Invoicing THEN
          IF "Qty. to Invoice" = 0 THEN

Change the code in the UpdInvPostingBuffer function in the Sales-Post codeunit (80) as follows:
Existing code

          FALineNo := FALineNo + 1;
          InvPostingBuffer[1]."Fixed Asset Line No." := FALineNo;
        END;

        IF InvPostingBuffer[2].FIND THEN BEGIN
          InvPostingBuffer[2].Amount := InvPostingBuffer[2].Amount + InvPostingBuffer[1].Amount;

Change the code in the DivideAmount function in the Sales-Post codeunit (80) as follows:
Existing code

        IF RoundingLineInserted AND (RoundingLineNo = SalesLine."Line No.") THEN
          EXIT;

            "Inv. Discount Amount" := 0;

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