eConnect GetEntity returns blank string

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I am sending an invoice transaction (taPMTransactionInsert and taPMDistribution_ItemsTaPMDistribution) to Dynamics GP and I am getting up to the point of making the call to eConnectMethods.GetEntity() and I have confirmed that XmlDocument.OuterXml has been created properly. However, GetEntity() returns a blank string (not null).

There are errors in the XML (eg. invalid account codes) but I would expect either eConnect to throw an exception or to return error information in the string returned by GetEntity().

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

    Use CreateTransactionEntity() to post the transaction, not GetEntity().
