Attaching a file in Vendor invoice attachments using Web service (Snaplogic Integration)

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by ShahTanuj 330

Hello Everyone,

I have a requirement wherein i have a vendor invoice pdf file which is stored in sharepoint server which i need to attach to a pending vendor invoice in d365fo we are currently using snaplogic to read the file from sharepoint server and transform the contents into binary data and Rest post operation to push this data into ax.

From AX side i have exposed DourefEntity so when i am trying run the snaplogic Rest post operation using the file operation its failing to load the binary data.

Can anybody help me out to resolve this issue or if there is any other alternative to attach a pdf file in ax using service?

    Hi,

    For the pending vendor invoice data there are in total 3 entities available. One of them is for attaching invoice pictures. Maybe you can take a look at that entity and use it.

    Another question is why you save the documents first on share point? You can upload all your invoice information including the attachment, which is automatically stored on share point. That might be another alternative for you.

    Best regards

    Ludwig

    I have tried with VendorInvoiceDocumentAttachmentEntity but it gives the same error "Binary (object), method constructFromContainer called with invalid parameters"

    Actually we have a third party system which uploads the invoices to the sharepoint folder and we have to pick the invoice from there and insert it into ax as attachments using service.

    The issue is resolved now there was some problem with the code as i had to first load the base64 data into the File contents container then load the binary data using Bin class in ax, now  i am able to attach the pdf file in ax using service.

    Thanks
