Posted on by Community Member

I am currently creating purchase journal lines using Odata endpoint dynamically and the accountant login to the BC to manually post the purchase journal batch.

Is there a way (API) available to do this via API call?

Hi James,

You need to call posting routines without revoking any dialog box in a codeunit and then expose that codeunit as Web Service.

Hi,

You can create a Webservice bound action.

In this you will call the Journal posting code unit.

Refer docs.microsoft.com/.../devenv-creating-and-interacting-with-odatav4-bound-action

Hi Olister,

It seems by default, in Web Services tab in BC has Post objects in codeunit type, however it only exposes SOAP API.

So are you saying that we can we can create AL extension using the SOAP API so that is can be exposed as Page?

Hi James,

It is through ODATA and not SOAP.

I am not sure if the Posting action is available by default in Web Services.

If you do not have it then you need to develop an extension and then exposes the developed extension object and call through web services.

If you need more details, feel free to ping me on Whatsapp or Email

Hi Olister,

Post action seems to be available by default in Web Services but as codeunit and it exposes SOAP API only (no OData) for it.

But I guess in order to actually invoke Post Action, I should create extension using the codeunit and expose that as OData?

Its good to know it is possible, just need to let the management know its possible and see what will be done about it.

Hi James,

Yes, its possible to do it through ODATA but you will need to develop the extension.

Refer the link I have sent you in above conversations.

We are creating the integration with MS Navision and have some blockers with push payments from our application to MS Navision.

Could you clarify which default codeunit it is necessary to use to post payments from Payment Journal to Customer Ledger Entry?

Now, we use the following endpoint to push payments to Payment Journal - host:port/.../CRONUS Canada, Inc./Page/Payment_Journal

But, we cannot find how to post payments via API.
