Dear Members,

Please, guide me with this issue.

To use NAV WS from another NAV database, we are testing below example. There is one thing we couldn't understand what is salesOrderService variable. Think, it is a .net assemly, but we need more clear guidance for this.

Hello Ariuka,

the salesOrderService in this example is indeed a .NET Assembly.

You can find it under the global or local variables window when choosing a DOT Net Assembly variable:

After selecting the 3.0.0.0-Version of the Assembly (like in the MSDN-example) simply choose the correct Assembly Object:

I hope this solves your Problem.

Thank you Alexander.

Yes, SalesOrderService is .net assembly, but in this example there no clarification about how to create this assembly.

Also I studied this video, actually very useful :) www.youtube.com/watch

but my requirement is little different, we need to read/update data with C/AL.

Here is the questions:

1. Should we use SN Assembly with NAV Web Services as server experience ?

2. Can we read/update data with C/AL SN Assembly with NAV Web Services ?

best you start with the great article from vjeko

vjeko.com/web-services-black-belt-consuming-nav-web-services-using-pure-cal

you could also create a sample c# app, add a web service reference to the nav web service. in the project subfolder <user folder>\Projects\ConsoleApplication1\ConsoleApplication1\obj\Debug\TempPE you'll find the dynamically created assembly Web References.NavProxy.Reference.cs.dll, where NavProxy is the name of the referenced nav web service in your c# project. that assembly contains the reference class which wraps the nav web service. use that assembly to connect to the nav web service in your c/al code.

Hi Ariuka,

Can you elaborate your question a bit more.

Are you Just trying to call a Method of NAV Codeunit say Database A exposed as Web Service for NAV Database B. This function needs to be called with certain Parameter from Database B which will get executed in Database A and will perform the Operation.

Is this what you are trying to Ask??
