Not able to add more than 10 materials in physical inventory document

[sayed_khan]

Hi,

In SAP Inventory Manager 3.2 i am not able to add more then 10 material items in physical inventory document. .

The Item number does not increase above 10 and it shows error "Target (id) already exists for transaction materialAdd".

Please suggest.

Best Regards,

Sayed

In addition to Jason's questions, would also like to know which client you are experiencing this issue.
Is this a Windows CE, iPhone, tablet, or lapton client?

Mohammad,

I confirmed that this issue still exists in IM 4.0, with the latest Agentry 7.0.5 client. 
I told that you have reported this as a support incident, so a formal response to your issue will come via that channel.

Informally, I identified this issue in the calculation of item property for a new.  The rule that calculates the next item value uses the COLLECTION_MAX function.  Since the item property is defined as a string, collection_max determines that "9" > "10" and calculates 9 as the max.  The rule then adds one, and keeps coming up with 10 as the next id.

Changing the type of the Material.item property to Integral Number should address this issue.  The change of type would likely be needed in both the object and transactions on the item property.
