  • 1.  Issue trying to DFDM the Scanco MB ItemLocationQuantity file

    Posted 04-22-2026 16:36

    Have a client with a SO Register that burped and when it restarted, it duped 4 lines of inventory transactions, which put the IM_CostDetail and IM_140MB_ItemLocationQuantity file out of balance. When trying to fix them, I am getting this on the Scanco file, but I am NOT modifying any key fields - I'm just trying to clear out the QOH. Has anyone else seen this before? I assume I'll have to use SQL to fix?

    I'd definitely take a look in SQL.  If duplicates of the SQL primary key have happened, that is bad... but what Sage considers to be the key fields, and what SQL considers to be the key fields, may be different.

    That's what I was thinking, like maybe the key was considered only the item, warehouse, and bin, and not the Lot Number. It's doing it on all 4 records, so I don't feel like it's file corruption.

    I'd look at the raw data, absolutely, and assume nothing.  My secondary worry would be a corrupted data dictionary, causing a false warning in DFDM.

    Beth, 

    the key value or this file is: Itemcode + WarehouseCode+LotSerialNo+PalletID

    I tested what you are trying to do, and it happens on a clean install, so this is not data corruption.

    To work around it try this:

    • Change the qty on hand
    • Add or change the field "palletid"
    • Click UPDATE
    • Tou will be asked to remove the old key answer YES
    • Remove or change the pallet id back to what it was previously.
    • Click Update
    • You will be asked again to remove the old key – answer YES

    you should now have just the one record and the qty on hand will be corrected.

    But it gets better - I had to do one over again and this time I had to change the Pallet.
