Link G/L Entry with Item-number

Hi

I have a problem where I need to export an xml-file from G/L Entry and some how generate one field from Item no. if one has been used.

I'm aware that if for example a sales invoice uses multiple items which shares same dimension set-id, the G/L entry will be combined to one entry.

Is there a effortless way to link G/L entry to Value entry? Most painless way must be create a dimension out of Item no. and and make it mandatory to every item posting?

Br,

    GL entries will be one to one to the Value entry, for the PL side of a sales transaction, so that should not be a problem. You can add Item No. as a field in the GL Entry and update this at posting time.

    Yes, creating default dimensions against each item no. using the item no. itself will force the G/L entry postings to be split - although you should set them up as "Same Code" instead of mandatory.

    An alternative option is to force the posting to always split - you can do this with just a couple of lines of code. Have a look in codeunit 80 - fixed asset lines are always split, from memory I think there is an integer which gets incremented and then gets assigned to a field called "Fixed Asset Line No." - just do the same, this field is only used for that purpose.
