Post sales inv with Type set but 'No.' empty, error printing

Hi.

(Canadian Cronus) If you add an invoice line with the Type set to 'G/L Account' and leave the 'No.' empty (to add extra text to invoice body), you can post the invoice just fine.

But, if you try to print the posted invoice you get the error:
There is no Tax Area Line within the filter. Filters: Tax Area: "
It seems the sales tax calc code (CU 398) chokes on the line that has Type set but no No.

That's a dandy little land-mine.

Is there an accepted patch for this? (The preference would be for one that disallows the posting in the first place.)

    This is fixed in SP1. The posting is correct, it is supposed to allow this. The issue is in the printing. Where Report 10074 calls CU398.
    Don't modify posting or realease, that is not the issue.

    Strangely even though they fixed it in SP1, MS wont acknowledge this as a bug in 5.00. go figure that one out.

    Maybe there is a hot fix out there for it, but its less work to fix the report than spending amonth searching Partner Source.
