Strange error when creating purchase receipts with allocations

[Kjetil Ringstad]

An error occurs when creating purchase receipts without a link to specific purchases, and the same inventory number occurs multiple times after each other, and in addition allocations are specified.

Endpoint: POST to /controller/api/v1/PurchaseReceipt

This error occurs even though the quantities are specified:
"message": "VismaId: 7523eff7-f821-4666-a1da-7e4644487f0c. Error creating purchase receipt. Purchase order error: The quantity must be above 0."

If the inventory numbers are not straight after each other , but separated by another number inbetween everything goes well.

Example, method 1, this creates an error:
Product 1, allocation A
Product 1, allocation B
Product 2, allocation C

But this goes well, method 2,
Product 1, allocation A
Product 2, allocation C
Product 1, allocation B

Please see the JSON examples OK and NotOk below.

The data is coming from a WMS system , so we don't have control over the order the products are received.

For other reasons, the products need to be stated on two different lines in Visma.net, so we can't merge them into one line with two allocations.

Please advise on what we should change to get method 1 to work as intended.

Not OK, method 1:

Hi,

We have confirmed this happens when having two consecutive entries of the same item.

It seems like a check is triggered on the second entry, and if the receiptQty is included on the line, it seems like the inventoryItem is not found.
We'll look into this. 

Thank you. 

[Kjetil Ringstad]

Hi 

Any chance of an update on when this will be fixed? It's an annoying issue that creates a lot of unnecessary errors. 

[Magnus Johnsen]

We'll ask for an update and get back to you. 

[Kjetil Ringstad]

Can we please have an update?

[Magnus Johnsen]

Hi,

It is currently in the backlog waiting to be picked up by a developer. 

We have asked for an ETA on this case. 

[Kjetil Ringstad]

Hi

Did you get an ETA for this? The customers affected by this are getting impatient.

[Magnus Johnsen]

Hi Kjetil,

Just wanted to update you, the case has been picked up from the backlog and has been assigned to a developer.

Thank you for your patience.
