Posted on by noozan 20

i am trying to create SO in business central using OData.

here is my code

NAV con = BCConnection.connect();
            SalesOrderHeader aa = new SalesOrderHeader
            {
                Number="123",
                CustomerNumber = "C1002",
                BillToCustomerNumber = "C1002"
        };
            con.AddObject("salesOrderHeaders", aa);
            con.SaveChanges();

with this code its giving error 

Name Value Type
InnerException "{\"error\":{\"code\":\"Application_DialogException\",\"message\":\"You may not enter numbers manually. If you want to enter numbers manually, please activate Manual Nos. in No. Series S-ORD. CorrelationId: 1756ebb5-dee8-42a5-a033-9a41cc263130.\"}}" System.Exception {Microsoft.OData.Client.DataServiceClientException}

    thank you for the reply and its working fine when I enable manual number.
    still if I submit without number, its giving the following error

    InnerException "{\"error\":{\"code\":\"BadRequest\",\"message\":\"A null value was found for the property named 'number', which has the expected type 'Edm.String[Nullable=False]'. The expected type 'Edm.String[Nullable=False]' does not allow null values. CorrelationId: e12b7021-4750-4fec-bc0d-ea9056f9cd74.\"}}" System.Exception {Microsoft.OData.Client.DataServiceClientException}

    is there any way i can save without the number, as i want it to generate automatically.

    Hi! This is BC "No Series" error, not C#.

    Open Business Central, then open No. Series page, select number series which you use for Sales Orders (by default it's S-ORD) and set a mark on "Manual Nos." field to let you create number manually.

    If you want to generate Sales orders numbers automatically just remove Number="123" parameter from your request.
