In the past, I've sent mail through SQL server using xp_sendMail. That's been depreciated; and the preferred way is to use msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail.

This article is just the code needed to send an email using that procedure.

You may wonder why we think it's a good idea to blog this sort of trivia; we do it because we're looking for the shortest possible route to getting an application developed. If all the pieces of code that we normally use (but forget the syntax) are in one place we've achieved that goal

 

This article contains code for a stored procedure template.

I work for 4 or 5 customers a day on support calls; I don't have the luxury of setting up SQL Server SSMS the way that I like it and coding blissfully.

A basic task for me would be creating a stored procedure; but I really don't like the templates that come with SQL.

In doing an eConnect transaction today, the customer was integrating documents into a closed period. eConnect sensed that and sent and error.

The customer asked me to update the document date to the earliest open date in that case.

The stored procedure below takes the series (explained in the script) and the target date and returns either the target date (meaning that it's a valid date) or the earliest open date that is later than the target date.

 

Websites like this one often make use of the ASP.NET Forms Authentication schema. That schema has an optional parameter that will allow you to admin how long the 'Keep Me Logged In' functionality will remember the person. It does this using a cookie and setting the cookie timeout.

So, here is the snippet of code that you need to administer this and change it from it's default 48 hour setting

You'll find this code on the ASP.NET menu

A recent blog entry from the Dynamics GP Support and Services blog hilighted the RM Transaction Unapply tool in the PSTL. It also included instructions on how to install the PSTL itself

The complete blog entry is here if you're not a DD member.

I've copied the section that details how to install PSTL below so that we'll have it if we need it (I really hate having to search for stuff like this)

This will help with the error:

A little while ago Chris Roehich blogged about the changes to eConnect in GP 2010. I missed the blog entry at the time; but I'm grateful to David Musgrave for pointing it out to me.

Excerpt:

In this post I will talk about the changes made to the API for eConnect for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 and how developers can take advantage of these changes to affect their custom application. If you have been using eConnect 2010 you have already realized that there is a new Windows service running called the eConnect for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 Integration Service. This is a change from the version 9 and 10 days where there was a COM+ application for eConnect that appeared under Component Services. Like the eConnect COM+ application, the eConnect 2010 service runs under a Windows user that requires DYNGRP role access in the DYNAMICS and company databases. I will breakdown some of the other changes in the following sections.

Hello

I have a user getting the following error during Purchase order entry in G.P
Any one knows why this is happening.
thanks      
   
                  

Hello,

Anyne knows why when we create a Purchase Order in G.P the actual user who created it is not showing up in some cases. Even when we use sql

select top 100 * from POA40003 WHERE PONUMBER = 'xxxxxx'

we just dont see who created it.

any idea will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi

Does anyone have an example of importing into AP through EConnect.

 

THanks

I need an example of using eConnect and inserting a payable batch transaction with a header and distribution.

I have been able to get all of the serialization working but, I cannot figure out the steps to take to get the xml to import.

Hi Everyone,

  I am creating an XML document to import purchase orders into Great Plains using eConnect. I am using eConnect to get the next PO number and that works first and then I serialize a PO line and PO Hdr but when I go to pass the XML string to the Entry Point Method I get the following error:

 

Sql procedure error codes returned:
Error Number = 880  Stored Procedure taPoLine  Error Description = Invalid Purchase Item Taxable (Purchase_IV_Item_Taxable) status (1=Taxable,2=Nontaxable,3=Base on Vendor
Node Identifier Parameters: taPoLine

VENDORID = IMP006
Related Error Code Parameters for Node : taPoLine                                          
Purchase_IV_Item_Taxable =  Note: This parameter was not passed in, no value for the parameter will be returned.

 

I also noticed that my vb method to populate the line item and hdr does not put in all of the line item attributes in the xml file. below is my code to serialize the PO information. Any help would be apreciated.

Sub SerializePurchaseOrderObject(ByVal filename As String, ByVal sPONumber As String)

            .UNITCOST = 56.95
            .UOFM = "each"
            .Purchase_Item_Tax_Schedu = ""
            .Purchase_IV_Item_Taxable = 2
        End With
        lineItems(0) = purchaseLine
        purchaseOrder.taPoLine_Items = lineItems

        With purchaseHdr
            .POTYPE = 1
            .PONUMBER = sPONumber
            .VENDORID = "IMP006"
            .VENDNAME = "IMPERIAL BAG & PAPER CO., INC."
            .DOCDATE = "08/10/2012"

        End With

        purchaseOrder.taPoHdr = purchaseHdr

        Dim serializer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(eConnectType))
        serializer.Serialize(writer, eConnect)
        writer.Close()

 

End Sub

 

 

this is what my XML file looks like, as you can see it is missing some attributes:

Hi,

I am trying to get all apply records for a certain document number, document type combination.  I have followed the VS Tools Programmers guide for Multi-segment keys and have the following code.  The issue is that the string contains all apply records.  Ones with different customers and ones that do not have an apply to document number of 12345.  Can someone see what I am doing wrong?

 

Thanks,

Darren

 

 

// Set Reference to AR Apply Table
RmAppliedOpenTable rmApplyOpenTable = Dynamics.Tables.RmAppliedOpen;
try
 {
      //Set Table Key
      rmApplyOpenTable.Key = 2;
 
     //Start of Range
    rmApplyOpenTable.Clear();
    rmApplyOpenTable.ApplyToDocumentNumber.Value = 12345;
    rmApplyOpenTable.ApplyToDocumentType.Value = 1;
    rmApplyOpenTable.RangeStart();
 
    // End of the range
    rmApplyOpenTable.Fill();
   rmApplyOpenTable.ApplyToDocumentNumber.Value = 12345;
    rmApplyOpenTable.ApplyToDocumentType.Value = 1;
    rmApplyOpenTable.RangeEnd();
 
    //Read through all of the rows in the range
    err = rmApplyOpenTable.GetFirst();
   string applies = "";
int i =0;
    while (err == TableError.NoError)
     {
           if (i == 0)
           {
               applies += rmApplyOpen.ApplyFromDocumentNumber.value;
           }
           else
           {
                 applies += ", " +  rmApplyOpen.ApplyFromDocumentNumber.value;
           }                   
          
         //Get the next line item
          err = rmApplyOpenTable.GetNext();
       }
 
return applies;
rmApplyOpen.close();

 

Is there any code that I can pass in a user name and password for a custom login page that can validate the credentials against a GP login. I would need the code for an .NET application. Would I need the Visual Studio tools or can I use GP web services? This would be for version 10
