title: Create a inventory movement journal in Dynamics AX 2012
body: <p>This problem is driving me nuts... I don't know how to fix it.  I'm trying to create an inventory movement journal entry using the ProfitLossJournalService.</p>
  
  <p>The code below runs, but it shows the transaction in the "inventory adjustment" journal.  I want it in the inventory movement jounal.</p>
  
  <pre><code>public void UpdateInventoryForConsumableItem(InventoryUpdate update)
  {
  var svc = new ProfitLossJournalServiceClient();
  var cc = new CallContext {Company = "SS"};
  var journal = new AxdProfitLossJournal();
  
  
  var table = new AxdEntity_InventJournalTable
  {
  InventDimFixedSpecified = false,
  InventSiteId = "MC",
  InventLocationId = "MAIN WH",
  JournalType = AxdEnum_InventJournalType.Movement,
  JournalNameId = "InvMovJour",
  Description = Constants.InventoryMovementJournalDescription,
  
  NumOfLines = 1,
  NumOfLinesSpecified = true,
  JournalTypeSpecified = true,
  JournalId = "InvMovJour",
  JournalIdOrignal = "InvMovJour",
  action = AxdEnum_AxdEntityAction.update
  };
  
  
  var inventoryDims = new AxdEntity_InventDim
  {
  InventLocationId = "MAIN WH",
  InventDimId = update.InventoryDimId,
  InventColorId = update.Color,
  InventSiteId = "MC",
  InventSizeId = update.Size,
  InventStyleId = update.Style,
  action = AxdEnum_AxdEntityAction.create
  };
  
  
  var entry = new AxdEntity_InventJournalTrans
  {
  InventDimId = update.InventoryDimId,
  TransDate = DateTime.Now,
  ItemId = update.ItemId,
  CostMarkupSpecified = false,
  InventRefTypeSpecified = false,
  LineNumSpecified = false,
  JournalType = AxdEnum_InventJournalType.Movement,
  JournalTypeSpecified = true,
  Qty = update.Quantity,
  QtySpecified = true,
  InventDim = new AxdEntity_InventDim[1] {inventoryDims}
  };
  
  
  
  table.InventJournalTrans = new[] {entry};
  
  journal.InventJournalTable = new[] {table};
  
  
  try
  {
  var result = svc.create(cc, journal);
  
  Logger.LogTrace(string.Format("sending InventoryTransferJournal {0}", result.GetValue(0)));
  Logger.LogEvent(Logger.SentConsumableInventoryUpdateToDynamics);
  }
  catch (Exception e)
  {
  Logger.LogException(e);
  
  throw;
  }
  }
