RIM Tool on 5.0 SP1

Artikkeli
10/17/2008

Although the RIM tool was originally designed to assist in the setup of Master data; i.e. Customers, Vendors, Items, etc., the reality is that many are using the Data Migration tool to bring in journal lines to set up beginning balances and to bring over historical data from legacy applications.

With the release of 5.0 SP1, a new data type conversion routine was introduced with codeunit 5302 - Outlook Synch. Type Conversion. There are several known issues with data conversion due to these changes.

All of these issue have been reported to development and are being considered for a fix in a future release of the NAV product.

This post offers some code suggestions and workarounds for the more common and/or critical issues. Many of the suggested workarounds involve one particular codeunit in the Data Migration tool, 8611 – Migration Management, so the following combined change log should be helpful.

This change log applies to 5.0 SP1 application objects ONLY.

Issues addressed by the change log:

1) Overflow on type conversion from Text to Text in Form 8626 when a text field larger than 100 chars is imported.
2) Error on import of fields beginning with a number (i.e. 1099 Code) - The call to member selectSingleNode failed. msxml6.dll returned the following message: Expression must evaluate to a node-set.
3) Imported dates are blank after migration data is applied.
4) Decimal values are converted incorrectly. Ex. - 7,500 becomes 7.5 after the migration data is applied.
5) Negative decimal values are converted incorrectly, resulting in changed values.
6) Error - Expected token 'EOF' found '$'. Error on fields with $ symbol
7) Error - The expression Text cannot be type-converted to a Boolean value (or Date value). This may occur on Setup Questionnaire, Data Migration or Data Template.

Changes are labeled with the associated number above.
