Hi Folks,

I have been stuck with the posting of sales invoice using the power automate by calling the action as a request.

I have tried some AL code to call the default codeunit then expose it as API and use it in Power Automate. Here is the code i tried

procedure postSalesInvoice(var actionContext: WebServiceActionContext)

var

SalesInvoiceRecord: Record "Sales Invoice Header";

begin

Codeunit.Run(Codeunit::"Sales-Post (Yes/No)", SalesInvoiceRecord);

end;

The action is exposed in flow and it results in the below error

Do i need to change anything in the code or any other approach to make it possible?

Any help on this would be appreciated

This codeunit you are using it will raised and confirm dialog, are you able to manage those dialog's options, like Ship, Invoice and Ship & Invoice?

Thanks.

Hi Nitin Verma ,

Appreciate your help on this!

As a newbie, I am not much familiar about handling those dialogs in Business Central

Can you guide me with any reference or a sample snippet

Please use Sales-Post codeunit instead of Sales-Post (Yes/No)

Hi Tamilarasu Arunachalam

As Nitin Verma suggested earlier, you need to manage to hide the dialogs. To do this, I think you have to find the specific event in your code unit "Sales-Post (Yes/No)" which is responsible for showing dialog, I had a similar requirement a few days ago, and this is how I hid the dialog when posting General Entries.

[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"Gen. Jnl.-Post", 'OnBeforeCode', '', false, false)] local procedure OnBeforeCode(var GenJournalLine: Record "Gen. Journal Line"; var HideDialog: Boolean); var RoyaltyParameters: Record uerRoyaltyAllocationParameters; begin if RoyaltyParameters.Get() then begin if (RoyaltyParameters.uerShowPostInvoiceDialog = false) then begin HideDialog := true; end; if (RoyaltyParameters.uerShowPostInvoiceDialog = true) then begin HideDialog := false; end; end; end;

Regards.
