Is there a simple way to log an error during posting

JosephGress · 2012-02-07

I would like to create a custom table named "Error Log" with a few fields like "Entry No.", "User ID", Date and Time to record certain details about when a certain error occurs during a standard posting. The code for doing this would be pretty simple except that the error won't be recorded because the transaction gets rolled back due to the error. I can think of several ways around this but they all seem rather messy and cumbersome. Do any of you have any tricks to accomplish this? Thanks.

If your NAV version supports it, you can use GETLASTERRORTEXT in combination with IF Codeunit.RUN THEN; to retrieve the error message. See for example the thread How to store the error messages in Navision while posting PO

Thanks Luc. I considered using the GETLASTERRORTEXT as you suggested but decided to go a different route because I didn't want to change the standard posting code. I decided to append the errors to an error file on the network using FILE commands. I used a UNC file path that all users have access to so that all users are appending to the same file.
