Adding a Purchase Order via SQL

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 110

I'd like to be able add Purchase Orders to RMS 1.3 via our own vb.NET application.

 

The purchase orders would be in a 'non-received' state (ie. not sent to the supplier yet)

 

Not that familiar with RMS database so just wanted to check first.

 

I would first create an entry in the [PurchaseOrder] table with details about the order. Then I would add each item in the order to the [PurchaseOrderEntry] table using the  [PurchaseOrder].[ID] for [PurchaseOrderEntry].[PurchaseOrderID] and obviously each items details ie. ItemID, ItemDescription

 

Is it that straightforward or am I missing something?

    I'm not looking for an Import tool unless i can't get the direct insert to work. It would add a third system interchange to an already cumbersome process. Thanks.

    I have not. I'm still working on it. I'm waiting for my client to try the POs i created and pushed to their test instance.

    I'm trying to do this too, but from an ODBC connection. I am also creating the corresponding 'worksheets'. I don't see how/where the Worksheet Numbers and PO Numbers are to be set. Just using a MAX + 1 doesn't sem to work.  Any help would be appreciated.  

    My application is 'linking' two different Purchaing systems for companies that are merging.  

    Cheers.

    Its that straight forward. We've created something similar for a liquor store customer.
