Web service API - Patching Direct Debit Collection Entries

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Wightfibre 5

Hi there,

I am trying to generate the Direct Debit Export for a 3rd party company. Creating the file is not the issue, but after it has been generated I was hoping to update the status field on the 

Direct Debit Collect. Entries entity to "File Created".
I am using Oauth2 to authenticate and calling the respective API setup in Web Services:
Header:
{
  "Content-Type": "application/json;IEEE754Compatible=true",
  "If-Match": "*"
}
Body:
{
  "Status": "File Created"
}
The result being returned is:
{
  "error": {
    "code": "BadRequest",
    "message": "Control 'Status' is read-only.  CorrelationId:  *****."
  }
}

    In the UI that field can’t be edited by a user. Using that page as a web service will give the same result. You need a dedicated API page or codeunit to fulfil this requirement

    Thank you so much :-)

    I don't suppose you have an easy way to replicate the existing Direct Debit Collections Entries page in order to set this to editable?
