sending OData post to insert data returns already exist

Posted on by sami khan 45

Hi all.

I am trying to insert a simple row in Account Schedule. Schedule Name is already created in Account Schedules page. Issue is when i use postman to send data to account Schedule., I get following error

{
    "error": {
        "code": "Internal_EntityWithSameKeyExists",
        "message": "The record in table Acc. Schedule Line already exists. Identification fields and values: Schedule Name='',Line No.='10001'  CorrelationId:  eb85b786-d673-47d1-b43b-71b518998691."
    }
}

My request body looks like this:

{
	"Schedule_Name": "IC1",   /// It is already in Account Schedules
	"Line_No": 10001,
    "Row_No": "10",
    "Description": "Total Revenue",
    "Totaling_Type": "Posting Accounts",
    "Totaling": "40100..40400",
    "Row_Type": "Balance at Date",
    "Amount_Type": "Net Amount",
    "Show_Opposite_Sign": false,
    "Dimension_1_Totaling": "",
    "Dimension_2_Totaling": "",
    "Dimension_3_Totaling": "",
    "Dimension_4_Totaling": "",
    "Show": "Yes",
    "Bold": false,
    "Italic": false,
    "Underline": false,
    "Double_Underline": false,
    "New_Page": false
}

Is it because of composite keys or Schedule Name is coming from related Table?

Please point me in right direction to resolve this issue.

Regards

    Please check that:

    - you don’t have a record with those primary key values

    - if the record is not present, please check if you have code in OnValidate or OnInsert triggers that does something.

    Steano Thanks for reply. It is a composite key with fields "Schedule Name" and "Line No.". As you can see in Json. I am providing values for both. But in response Schedule Name is empty while Line No. has value.

    There is no action called "Edit in Excel"

    POST is an Insert operation, so here it seems that you're posting a record with the same primary key.

    Hello,

    Does the same issue happen when using "Edit in Excel"?
