API: Format error in $filter of agedAccountPayables by agedAsOfDate

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13
Hi,
 
I'm getting a strange error trying to $filter `agedAccountsPayables` (or Receivables) by `agedAsOfDate` as it always tells me the format of the date is wrong.  The exact same format of $filter works for e.g. `purchaseOrders` by `orderDate`.
 
Is this a bug in the API, or something I am misunderstanding?
 
Examples using the Cronus sample database (with some manual word-wrapping for clarity:
 
GET https:/api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/{{tenant}}/production/api/v2.0/agedAccountsPayables?company=CRONUS UK Ltd.&$filter=agedAsOfDate ge 2024-02-01
{
  /error/: {
    /code/: /Application_EvaluateException/,
    /message/: /The format of the Date '>=02/01/24' does not match your device's date settings.//r///r/Make sure that the day, month, and year are in the correct order and use the correct separator (such as - or /). Alternatively, you can always use the format 'yyyy-mm-dd'.  CorrelationId:  b750524a-573b-475f-bdbf-6c85024937be./
  }
}
 
GET https:/api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/{{tenant}}/production/api/v2.0/purchaseOrders?company=CRONUS UK Ltd.&$filter=orderDate gt 2024-04-08
{
  /@odata.context/: https:/api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/070927bf-7189-4b3c-99b5-60f306d9b138/production/api/v2.0/$metadata#purchaseOrders/,
  /value/: [...results...]
}
 
 
You can see that I am indeed sending in yyyy-mm-dd format that it says you can always use, but the error suggests it has internally been converted to US format dates (and my tenant is a UK one).
 
Very strange that it works for purchaseOrders, but not for agedAccountsPayables.
 
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

    Worked out my mistake - agedAsOfDate should of course use an `eq` not `gt`.  The error message made no sense, but the error was using the wrong operator in the $filter.
