Create new inventory dimension in D365 F&O.

Short intro of Inventory Dimensions.

If we look at the InventDim table, the fields can be split up in 3 groups:

1. Product Dimensions
2. Tracking Dimensions
3. Storage Dimensions

Apart those three groups are also 12 unassigned generic dimensions: InventDimension1 to InventDimension12.

In the tracking dimensions group, fields InventProfileId_RU and InventOwnerId_RU are specified for Russian localization. those can be turned off with the configuration key “Invent tracking dimensions – GTD, inventory profile, owner.”

How to create new Inventory Dimension

1. First step is to create a extension of InventDim table (InventDim.Extension) and add our new field called “InventDimension1 ” inside field group that this dimension belongs (in our case Tracking Dimension).
2. Create a new relation in InventDim.Extension from the InventDimension1 to your new lookup table.
3. Create an extension of InventDimParm table (InventDimParm.Extension) and add InventDimension1Flag to the field group that belongs (in our case Tracking Dimension).
4. Create EDT Extension of InventDimension1  and InventDimension1Flag to correct labels on.
5. The next step is creating extension of next three tables using chain of comand and the final step is creating the new extended class from InventTrackingDimension.

[ExtensionOf(tableStr(InventDim))]
final class InventDimXXDim1_Extension
{

public DlvTermId parmInventFlavorId(DlvTermId _XXTable = this.getValueForDimension(classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1)))
{
if (!prmIsDefault(_XXTable))
{
this.setValueForDimension(classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1), _XXTable);
}
return _XXTable;
}

public static FieldID fieldIdFlavor()
{
return InventDim::fieldIdForDimension(classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1));
}

}

[ExtensionOf(tableStr(InventDimParm))]
final class InventDimParmXXDim1_Extension
{

public NoYes parmInventFlavorFlag(NoYes _flavorFlag = this.getValueForDimension(classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1)))
{
this.setValueForDimension(classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1), _flavorFlag);
return _flavorFlag;
}

public static FieldID fieldIdFlavor()
{
return InventDimParm::fieldIdForDimension(classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1));
}
}

[ExtensionOf(tableStr(InventDimFieldBinding))]
public final class InventDimFieldBindingXXDim1_Extension
{

protected static FieldName className2FieldName(ClassName _className)
{
var fieldName = next className2FieldName(_className);
if (_className == classStr(XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1))
{
return fieldStr(InventDim, InventDimension1);
}
return fieldName;
}
}

final class XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1 extends InventTrackingDimension
{

public IndexId indexHintForTable(TableId _tableId)
{
switch (_tableId)
{
case tableNum(InventDim):
return IndexNum(InventDim, InventDimension1Idx);
}
return 0;
}
public static XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1 getInstance()
{
return InventDimension::singletonFromInventDimFieldId(fieldNum(InventDim, InventDimension1)) as XXInventTrackingDimensionDim1;
}
public boolean isAffectingPrice()
{
return true;
}
///Override next lines incase behavior should change

public boolean checkExistsValueForItem(InventTable _inventTable, anytype _value)
public boolean isSelective()
public boolean isTransferReceiptMergeable()
public boolean isTransferTransitReceiptMergeable()
}

The results

And of course, do not forget to turn on the configuration key for InventDimension1, testing would be impossible with out . The next screen dumps show the look and feel.
