Can't save document attachment while Sales-Post has an error

Hi everyone

I have a problem with saving the document attachment on Sales Header while posting the document. I saved 2 attachments to the Sales Header Attachment Factbox. I did this on event "OnRunOnBeforeFinalizePosting". If the posting flow doesn't have any error the attachment are successfully saved on the Sales Invoice Heard table, but if any errors happen during the posting flow the Sales Header is reopened again but the attachments are deleted and I want the attachments to be saved when Sales Header is reopened. I also used the Commit method but if I use Commit the document will be posted even if it has any errors.
So what I want is to prevent document from being posted if while the process any errors occurs and my attachments to be saved to Sales Header attachment document.

Can anyone help with this? Thanks in advance!

Can't save document attachment while Sales-Post has an error

Hi Zhu,

Thanks for your answer. The function that I use to save the attachments works correctly when the posting flow doesn't have any error and the attachments are successfully attached to Sales Invoice Header. The problem is that when an error occurs while posting flow and everything rolls-back my attachments are not saved to the Sales Header attachment document. I also used the Commit method but if I use Commit the document will be posted even if it has any errors.

What I want is to prevent document from being posted if while the process any errors occurs and my attachments to be saved to Sales Header attachment document.

Thanks in advance!

I also used Commit method. The attachments are saved but also the document is posted even though it has an error.

Although I personally don't recommend it, you can add a Database.Commit() Method

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/methods-auto/database/database-commit-method?wt.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004336

But when you post for the second time or later, you need to determine whether the attachment already exists.

Alternatively, there is actually a standard function that you can use, and you only need to click on it.

Hope this helps.
