2 UPDATING THE USES OF THE LEDGER POSTING FRAMEWORK FOR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS AX 2012

Overview The ledger posting framework is the API used to post to the general ledger and includes the LedgerVoucher, LedgerVoucherObject, and LedgerVoucherTransObject classes and related classes. Developers can use the factory methods in the LedgerVoucherTransObject class to create instances of these classes.

Multiple factory methods exist to support different input scenarios. After using one of these methods to create a class instance, a developer can customize the instance by using the parm methods.

In previous versions of Microsoft Dynamics AX, the LedgerVoucherTransObject class exposed the fields in the legacy LedgerTrans table. Changes to the data model in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 have resulted in the following mappings: 

The LedgerVoucherTransObject class maps to the GeneralJournalAccountEntry table and the LedgerEntry table.



The LedgerVoucherObject class maps to the GeneralJournalEntry table.



The LedgerVoucher class maps to the LedgerEntryJournal table.

This white paper provides information that developers can leverage to update uses of the ledger posting framework in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012.

Updating the LedgerVoucherTransObject class Most of the factory methods in the LedgerVoucherTransObject class have been replaced in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. Developers must, therefore, replace existing methods in their code with the new methods.

In addition, changes to references and parameters must be made when updating the code.

Update guidelines 

Support the account and dimension feature by replacing references to the AccountNum and Dimension fields with references to a ledger dimension field.



Add or remove parameters to more closely match key scenarios. For example, the new newTransactionAmountDefault method does not contain parameters for the accounting currency amount or the reporting currency amount. Instead, it takes a parameter for the exchange rate helper (CurrencyExchangeHelper), which is used to calculate these values from the transaction currency amount (which is still a parameter).



Use the parm methods: o

To set values that are not included as method parameters.

o

To set infrequently used values. Microsoft developers have removed parameters that are not frequently used. 

For example, the source table ID (tableId) and source record ID (recId) have been removed as parameters for the factory methods. Use the parmSourceTableId and parmSourceRecId methods to set the TableId and RecId values for all scenarios.

Note: Microsoft developers have also removed parameters that are related to the lack of normalization in the LedgerTrans table. The LedgerTrans table has been replaced in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 with other tables.

3 UPDATING THE USES OF THE LEDGER POSTING FRAMEWORK FOR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS AX 2012

Dimension validation The LedgerVoucherTransObject class supports the ability to not perform any dimension validation with the parmSkipDimensionValidation method. Passing true will ensure that a previously posted dimension combination will post in a scenario, such as reversing a dimension combination that was previously posted with dimension validation. The default behavior is to perform dimension validation.

LedgerVoucherTransObject transaction; transaction = LedgerVoucherTransObject::newBasicDefault(‌); transaction.parmSkipDimensionValidation(true);

Replacing factory methods The following table lists the factory methods in the LedgerVoucherTransObject class that are now obsolete and the new methods that should be used to replace them.

9 UPDATING THE USES OF THE LEDGER POSTING FRAMEWORK FOR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS AX 2012

newLedgerAllocationItem method #/// <summary> #/// Initializes a new instance of the <c>LedgerVoucherTransObject</c> class from a ledger allocation #/// item. #/// </summary> #/// <param name="_baseTransaction"> #/// The base ledger posting transaction. #/// </param> #/// <param name="_allocationItem"> #/// The ledger allocation item. #/// </param> #/// <returns> #/// A new instance of the <c>LedgerVoucherTransObject</c> class. #/// </returns> #public static LedgerVoucherTransObject newLedgerAllocationItem( # LedgerVoucherTransObject _baseTransaction, #

LedgerAllocationItem _allocationItem)

Use this method in allocation account scenarios with the LedgerAllocationController class. 

Key parameters 

Base LedgerVoucherTransObject



LedgerAllocationItem object



The base ledger posting transaction is cloned and a LedgerAllocationItem object is used to finish initializing the object.

Using the CurrencyExchangeHelper class This class is part of the account and financial dimension network. Many transactions outside of the general ledger framework only track the transaction currency amount and use basic conversion to get the other values. The CurrencyExchangeHelper class is used in the general ledger framework to calculate the accounting currency amount or the reporting currency amount, for example, to convert a transaction currency to a reporting currency. 

Use a CurrencyExchangeHelper object to calculate the accounting currency amount and reporting currency amount.



CurrencyExchangeHelper::newLedger and CurrencyExchangeHelper::newExchangeDate are the most commonly used factory methods for creating instances of the CurrencyExchangeHelper class.



Currency is a parameter for the existing call to the LedgerVoucherTransObject::newCreateTrans method.

The CurrencyExchangeHelper object must be configured with information, such as the exchange date and exchange rates. This information can be retrieved as follows: 

The accounting date of the LedgerVoucherObject object is often used as the exchange date and can be accessed with the LedgerVoucherObject.parmAccountingDate method. o

Use the LedgerVoucher.findLedgerVoucherObject method to retrieve the LedgerVoucherObject object if a LedgerVoucherObject variable is not available.

Code samples The following code samples show some of the conversions that are required to update uses of the ledger posting framework from Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 to Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. The legacy code is shown unchanged. The updated code is shown with comments to highlight specific information.

Each of these code samples instantiates the LedgerVoucherTransObject class and configures it in a specific way. The new and the old code patterns provide objects that are functionally equivalent.

In previous versions of Microsoft Dynamics AX, if you were only posting one amount, you passed in a “0” value (the last value in the parameter list) for the accounting currency amount, and the method would calculate the value. The new method removes this parameter; you have to calculate the accounting currency yourself. The new method creates a LedgerVoucherTransObject object that is configured as it was in previous versions of Microsoft Dynamics AX.

AssetPostDisposal.post Legacy code ledgerVoucherTransObject = LedgerVoucherTransObject::newCreateTrans( ledgerVoucher.findLedgerVoucherObject(), LedgerPostingType::FixedAssetsDebit, l_assetDisposalParameters.Account, assetTrans.Dimension, companyCurrency, //assetTrans.currencyCode, -assetAmount, assetTrans.TableId, assetTrans.RecId, 0);

Updated code ledgerVoucherObject = ledgerVoucher.findLedgerVoucherObject();

//The currency exchange helper is used to calculate the accounting currency. //amount and reporting currency amount. currencyExchangeHelper = CurrencyExchangeHelper::newExchangeDate( Ledger::current(), ledgerVoucherObject.parmAccountingDate());

//Create a ledger dimension from the default account and default dimensions. mergedLedgerDimension = DimensionDefaultingService::serviceCreateLedgerDimension( l_assetDisposalParameters.LedgerDimension, assetTrans.DefaultDimension);

transaction = LedgerVoucherTransObject::newTransactionAmountDefault( ledgerVoucherObject, LedgerPostingType::FixedAssetsDebit, 11 UPDATING THE USES OF THE LEDGER POSTING FRAMEWORK FOR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS AX 2012

mergedLedgerDimension, companyCurrency, //assetTrans.currencyCode, -assetAmount, currencyExchangeHelper);

transaction.parmSourceTableId(assetTrans.TableId); transaction.parmSourceRecId(assetTrans.RecId);

CustVendVoucher.post Legacy code ledgerVoucherTransObject = LedgerVoucherTransObject::newCreateTrans( _ledgerPostingJournal.findLedgerVoucherObject(), ledgerPostingType, ledgerAccount, dimension, currencyCode, 0, custVendTrans.TableId, custVendTrans.RecId, 0, exchRate, exchRateSecondary, euroTriangulation, false, null, this.parmAmountMST());

Updated code ledgerVoucherObject = _ledgerPostingJournal.findLedgerVoucherObject();

//Create a ledger dimension from the default account and default dimensions. ledgerDimensionDefault = this.summaryLedgerDimension(); ledgerDimensionMerged = DimensionDefaultingService::serviceCreateLedgerDimension( ledgerDimensionDefault, defaultDimension);

transaction = LedgerVoucherTransObject::newAdjustmentDefault( ledgerVoucherObject, ledgerPostingType, ledgerDimensionMerged, currencyCode, 12 UPDATING THE USES OF THE LEDGER POSTING FRAMEWORK FOR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS AX 2012

this.parmAmountMST(), 0.0); // reporting amount

transaction.parmSourceTableId(custVendTrans.TableId); transaction.parmSourceRecId(custVendTrans.RecId);

BankVoucher.post Legacy code ledgerVoucherTransObject = LedgerVoucherTransObject::newCreateTrans( _ledgerPostingJournal.findLedgerVoucherObject(), posting, ledgerAccount, dimension, currencyCode, amountCur, 0, 0, 0, exchRate, exchRateSecond, exchRatesTriangulation);

Updated code ledgerVoucherObject = _ledgerPostingJournal.findLedgerVoucherObject();

//The currency exchange helper is used to calculate the accounting currency. //amount and reporting currency amount. currencyExchangeHelper = CurrencyExchangeHelper::newExchangeDate( Ledger::current(), ledgerVoucherObject.parmAccountingDate());

currencyExchangeHelper.parmExchangeRate1(exchRate); currencyExchangeHelper.parmExchangeRate2(exchRateSecond);

//Create a ledger dimension from the default account and default dimensions. ledgerDimensionMerged = DimensionDefaultingService::serviceCreateLedgerDimension( ledgerDimension, defaultDimension);
