How to post SO's or PO's without user dialogs

If you need to update a sales order or a purchase order without any user dialogs, Axapta provides you with a simple interface to do just that.

The SalesFormLetter and PurchFormLetter classes contain the update method, which gives you an easy interface to setup and run posting of a sales order or a purchase order.

The following job is an example on how you use this method to update invoices on sales orders:

static void postSalesFormLetter(Args _args)

{ 

    SalesFormLetter  salesFormLetter;

    salesTable  salesTable;

    ttsBegin;  

    while select salesTable

 where salesTable.DocumentStatus < salesid ="=">

 {  

 salesFormLetter = SalesFormLetter::construct(DocumentStatus::Invoice);  // Get a new instance of SalesFormletter

 salesFormLetter.transDate(SystemDateGet());   // Set the invoicedate   

 salesFormLetter.update(salesTable,   // SalesTable                   SalesUpdate::All,  // Quantity to update (SpecQty)                 AccountOrder::None,  // AccountOrder                   false,    // Proforma only?                  true);    // Printout?  }

 ttsCommit;

}
