Check Date Format Error - Still in Rel 7

KWevick

The message for U.S. customers when writing a check, "You cannot use the <blank> Check Date Format option with a Canadian Style Check. Please check Vendor XX." has been a problem for several releases and is still appearing in NAV2013. The 'fix' is to enter the date format and separator for every vendor, but I'm wondering if there has been a setup or another fix in the meantime. This is has been a problem at least since V5.0. I've set up the check format for the bank, but am still getting this error. I really hate having to make the client fill in formats on every new vendor.

Please let me know if you have a solution. If you've made a mod that will work on NAV2013, please advise.

Thanks,

Add a trigger on the vendor table insert to fill in the fields - date format and separator.
If you are all US vendors it is 2 lines of code - if you are multi-country, then you can check the country code.
