Purchase Order Receiving and ODATA

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 20

Hello,

We have created a portal for vendors and sub's to view PO's, Invoices, and etc. thru ODATA. This is working great with one exception, receiving material.

Example: 

Lets say Vendor A has a PO for 20 Widgets. They Quantity to Receive and Invoice fields are naturally 20.

The "Quantity Received" field is the problem - we would like the sub to be able to go into the portal and populate the "Quantity Received" field to whatever they receive, could be 1 or all 20.

This field is apparently read only and can only be populated when the PO is received/posted in BC.

Does anyone know who to make this work?

Thank you very much in advance,

Mark

    Mark,  for your scenario you don't update Quantity Received directly you need to update the Qty. to Receive and invoice on BC and run the Posting routine to create receipts, ledger entries which will, in turn, will update the quantity received and invoiced if the posting is successful.  so you need another custom service to execute the posting routine.
