Purpose of Code in CU23

matttrax

Could someone tell me what the purpose of the following code is:

IF INCSTR("Journal Batch Name") <> '' THEN BEGIN

I mean obviously I know what it does, but why is it there? Basically it checks if the Item Journal Batch Name has a number on the end of it and increments it. It's messing up an automatic process / post I have. So it'll work the first time, but then the batch gets renamed and it can't find it when it runs again.

Version NAV 5.0 SP1, Codeunit 23

Thanks

This is std nav feature. You can comment the code or write an if statement to only do it because of setup.

The other option is not to have a batchname that ends with number.

It actually still does it if it starts with a number too.

I was just curious if there was a reason behind it. Seems like it should be out-of-the-box as you said, a setup option.

Thanks

It is used mostly for periodic journals, where you have new journal for new month etc.
