Adjust Cost - Item Entries [Error Division By Zero 0/0]

xchildxchild Member Posts: 22
I am getting a "Division by Zero" error message when trying to run the Adjust Cost - Item Entries in Navision 4.0.

The error occurs in Inventory Adjustment codenit number 5895 within the function CalcCostPerUnit.

The error occurs after the second IF statement and I don't really know what values the program is using to create entries in Cost Element Buffer table.

    Try to import SP1 objects and run adjust cost routine.

    I am having the same error, and I'm a little bit tired of having to debug this codeunit in all versions again and again... Importing SP1 objects is not feasible, as there might have been related changes in other objects, like Item Jnl - Post Line etc.

    Did anyone debug this error before me, so I might save the effort this time?

    Do It Yourself is they key. Standard code might work - your code surely works.

    However I only got this error in a testing database, where an Item is set to Standard Costing and the standard cost = 0 so it might not happen in a production database, I hope.

    [-X You know it will happen, 9/10 of good programming is for the exception.

    Would it not be wise to debug and IF Value1 <> 0 THEN X := Value2/Value1; ?

    No, because I think this is a deeper issue - I would not assume our friends at Vedbaek made so simple errors - and if I apply such a simple fix, some other value might get wrong.

    I know that there were some similar problems in 3.60, solution was to do positive adjustment of one PCS of the item which is source of the problem, run the job and do neg. adjustment of the item back to original quantity. I described the problem somewhere on the former partnerguide site but it is not available anymore and I forgot the details (but there were problem when the system was calculating history of the stock and in some point the system calculated that there is 0 stock and tried to divide the amount with this quantity...)

    still getting the same error in NAV5SP1
    CalcCostPerUnit(VAR OutbndValueEntry : Record "Value Entry";OutbndCostElementBuf : Record "Cost Element Buffer";ItemLedgEntryQty : DeciMAL...
    WITH OutbndCostElementBuf DO BEGIN
      IF (OutbndValueEntry."Cost per Unit" = 0) AND ("Remaining Quantity" <> 0) THEN
        OutbndValueEntry."Cost per Unit" := "Actual Cost" / (ItemLedgEntryQty - "Remaining Quantity");
      IF (OutbndValueEntry."Cost per Unit (ACY)" = 0) AND ("Remaining Quantity" <> 0) THEN
        OutbndValueEntry."Cost per Unit (ACY)" := "Actual Cost (ACY)" / (ItemLedgEntryQty - "Remaining Quantity");
    END;
    

    What if i add in the beginning
    IF ItemLedgEntryQty - OutbndCostElementBuf."Remaining Quantity" <> 0 THEN
    

    i just wonder if the logic of the code that gives me ItemLedgEntryQty is ok or not. BEcause if it is not then it can lead to wrong results. And if it ok maybe i should assign
    OutbndValueEntry."Cost per Unit (ACY)" := "Actual Cost (ACY)"
    
    and not leave it 0 ?

    I have the same problem in 2009 R2 - when i´m doing a positive adjustment in an Item Journal Line. I´m considering simular code as Eugene but don´t know if this will cause me any other problems.

    Anyone tried this?
