I thought NAV all versions would not allow an Item # to be deleted if there were Ledger Entries.

I just ran into a situation in NAV 2017 where an Item # was delete. The Item # had Ledger Entries and a Posted Invoice with the Item #, however NAV allowed the Item to be deleted.

After testing, it appears NAV 2017 will allow an Item # to be deleted if none of the Ledger Entries are open, is this true? If so did this just start with 2017 or it has always been that way?

Thank you.

Not sure if always, but certainly in v3.70 it was that way.

from NAV 2009 to NAV 2016 I have never seen if it has worked.

Check Cronus.

You will find

MoveEntries.MoveItemEntries(Rec);

in OnDelete trigger in various places depending on version - this is where deleted Item No is removed from ledgers on item deletion - Item No field is blanked in Job Ledger Entries / Value Entries.

It might have some quirks as I remember vaguely fixing something around that - but clearly the intention was to let the Item to be deleted

I don't think so, that it will allow in same fiscal year, if the year is not closed yet.
