Hello - We currently do not have dedicated Dev support via the Dynamics 365 Business Central forums, but I wanted to provide you some additional resources to assist. If you need assistance with debugging or coding I would recommend discussing this on one of our communities.

I will open this up to the community in case they have something to add.

The ParentID will be the ID of the Invoice. If you have created the invoice in a previous step then you can utilise this ID. If not then you will need to call the Invoice API (Page 6404 of web services) and filter to the record you wish.

also can you please guide to work with the API of "attachment" to attach the document to "Purchase Invoice"?

"I have tried page 20039 web service to attach Documents in the Attachments tab of record .but instead of Attachment Tab it goes into Incoming Document"

Thanks In Advance.
