Getting Error for Mandatory Document Date for Many Transactions.

Posted on by 167

Hello Everyone,

Recently I am coming across this new warning error about- "Document Date must be specified" - This is coming for many of the transactions such as Vendor payment, Fixed assets journal, etc.

Is it because of any setup??

 

In D365 FNO application

Please help.

    Hi ,
     
    Can you check if you have this AP parameter?

    Hi Nikhil,
     
    It can be likely caused by the Mexican localization, but not sure as I was not involved in a Mexican roll out. Are you using the standard localization or did you include additional features from a partner?

    Hi, @andre, Thank you for your reply. Yes, We are facing this recently. We have Mexican Localization added to the system, may be because of that?? I am not sure. 
    Also, I will ask our technical team to lokk after this by doing debugging. 
     
    Thank you for your suggestions,

    Hi, @adis, Thank you for your suggestion. Yes, We have added the Mexican Localization and after which are facing this issue. But I don't see this Mandatory Document Checkbox on Journal Names form.

    @Adis,

    Interestingly, I don't have this field in my standard environment (10.0.43). Can you check if the field on your screenshot belongs to a standard model or if it is part of a third-party solution?

    Hi Nikhil,
     
    When you mention it is a new warning, was this started to appear recently? If so, what got changed? Did you install a partner solution, customization or some other change? As far as I'm aware there is no default check on the document date field in journals. It can be caused due to a customization.
    A developer can debug the scenario in a non-production environment to find the root cause.

    Hey,
     
    I guess so. It can be also a localization, because its mandatory in specific countries.
    It could also be related to this:
     
     

    Kind regards, Adis
