Expose properties of AxSalesTable via AIF SalesSalesOrderService

I’m working with AX2012 R2 and would like to expose more AxSalesTable properties via the SalesSalesOrderService AIF.

Currently I have the SalesSalesOrderService exposed as RMPSalesOrder via AX AIF. I have a .net web service called SalesOrderService (SOS) which is my main entry point for all other internal .net applications to push orders into AX.

I’m tasked pushing orders through that will be direct deliveries and programmatically creating purchase orders for those sales orders.

Through my research I found that the AxSalesTable class is where I should be looking to expose an existing or new method.

For instance I’d like to be able to say whether or not it’s a DirectDelivery by exposing the InterCompanyDirectDelivery property.

The parm method is public

The set method is protected

Here is the .net side

All of the SalesTable properties are successfully set at this time except the highlighted one. This one is not set and always seems to default at NO.

I’ve attempted to make changes and then refresh the service but once I refresh the service I actually lose all references to the Axd* objects via the AIF web service.

How do I successfully expose the InterCompanyDirectDelivery and have that follow to the .net code so I can mark it on the sales order during creation?

Bonus Question: How do you refresh the AIF without kyboshing the rest of the references?

Try adding SalesTable.InterCompanyDirectDeliverySpecified = true;.

Martin,

It's not possible to do this, InterCompanyDirectDelivery is an an Enum/EDT object.

That's not what I said; notice the suffix 'Specified'.

Martin,

My apologies! I did try that but it didn't update the DirectDelivery and I don't see set or parm methods for that particular field.

Any other advice?

Cheers,

Bob

Is it a recent change? Make sure services were successfully refreshed (go to AifService form, click Refresh and when it's done, review the Status (and Error message) of your service.

In past, I've seen issues when some fields were ignored, because the framework used a cached list of fields that didn't contain the new field. You may want to restart the server to clean the cache.

If everything fails, debug the framework to see where it fails (note that it's not particularly easy).

Martin,

I've attempted to refresh the service after making changes to the AxSalesTable class but I run into a weird problem. After using the AifService refresh option the AxSalesTable is not accessible via the SalesSalesOrderService in my .net application.

This is what I have access to now:

After I refresh the service the only objects available are Aif* objects.

Cheers,

Bob

I'm afraid that I don't understand. What do you mean that AxSalesTable is not accessible? When you say Aif* objects, don't you mean Axd* objects?

Maybe you mean that you used to pass an array of AxSalesTable objects to the service but now it expects an AxdSalesOrder object? Then you just have to assign the array to SalesTable property of AxdSalesOrder.

Martin, after using the refresh option on the AifService form in the AOT I am unable to access any of the axd* or ax* objects from the exposed AIF web service. I can only access Aif* class objects from the web service.

I think I'm on to something right now, I'll report back.

Now it's even more confusing. You gave us a picture with Axd* classes and enums and said "This is what I have access to now". And now you're saying the complete opposite ("I am unable to access any of the axd* objects"). It can't be true at the same time.

You also haven't explained what you mean by Aif* objects an "unable to access". Please do it now.

Martin,

Please disregard - Adding both SalesTable.InterCompanyDirectDeliverySpecified = true; AND SalesTable.IntercopmanyDirectDelivery = AxdExtType_InterCompanyDirectDelivery.Yes;

Seems to solve the problem.

I was working through refreshing the Query and adding new fields to the AIF yesterday. All is working.

Is it worth it to go through the steps to add new fields to AIF for future readers?

Cheers,

Bob
