Create Purchase Invoice Line API - Description override

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

First, I am using the API from Power Automate to Business Central.

Prior to a recent update to Business Central, this worked (postings back in May worked.)

Because there is no reference field to store info for a linking interface to consume, I simply concatenated a value to the existing description in the purchase invoice. As I mentioned, this worked back in May. Now when I attempt to concatenate the data, the description reverts to the product description. I don't recall changing a setting in configuration of Business Central.

Any suggestions on how to get my functionality back? And why would the field be in the API if it wasn't meant to be used?

    Hello Rob - I am unsure why this would have changed, but I would recommend posting this question on one of our Developer communities below.  Doing some Power Automate searches I do see they help with these types of questions.

    We will open this up to the community to see if they have experienced something similar.
