Inventory Counting (Tr) – Hardcoded Accuracy unable to be over 1000

  • Open Inventory Counting (TR)

  • Create a new Count Book and enter Storeroom =CENTRAL, Selection Criterion = ITEM

  • Save the record and change status to APPR

  • On the tab of Count Book Lines

If enter Physical Count = 19, and Accuracy = 950, no error message prompted and the record can be saved.

If enter Physical Count = 30, and Accuracy over 1000, error message- BMXAL0171E prompted and the change unable to be saved.


The range for accuracy is hardcoded as 999.99 in a java class, which is unconfigurable... but in some common user case, such as for bolts and nuts, it can go over 1000% very often. Therefore, this range should be enhanced to be configurable.
