DynamicsNAV & Business Central - Internal Movement Error - You Cannot use Location Code.

Hi Readers,

I was handling a support ticket for a customer who is recently upgraded from NAV 2013R2 to Business Central 14.

Customer users use Internal Movement as a part of this process.

When a user is trying to create a New Internal Movement system is generating this error message.

This article/solution is for #NAV2018 & #MSDYN365BC.


What is Internal Movement -

Specifies the take and place lines for items that you want to move between bins when they are not demanded by a particular source document. To process this manual movement, you then transfer the internal movement details to the Inventory Movement window where you can register it.

What setup is required for Internal Movement?

• Internal Movement Required user to be setup as Warehouse Employee.
• Location that is selected in Warehouse Employee should have - 
• Bin Mandatory = TRUE and Directed Put-away and Pick = FALSE.

So first I thought that the user might be missing the Warehouse Employee setup and I checked Warehouse Employee and Location Card.

After Debugging we found out -

• Base Microsoft Code is changed after NAV 2013 R2 related to New Internal Movement.

How to Fix Issue?

Check Warehouse Employee, Filter for records with Location Code Blank and Delete Records where Location Code is Blank.

Try Create Internal Movement?

After Deleting Junk Data Create a new Internal Movement. It will work as expected.

I hope it helps if you get stuck with this issue.

Stay Tuned for more.
