public string Quantity { get; set; }
public string No_of_Applications { get; set; }
public string Unit { get; set; }
public string Discount { get; set; }
public string UnitPrice { get; set; }
public string NetPrice { get; set; }

}


foreach (var data in retrv.Entities)
            {
                lstData.Add(
                        new Quote()
                        {
                            Id = data.Id,
                            LineNumber = data.Attributes.Contains("new_name") ? data["new_name"].ToString() : string.Empty,
                            ItemCode = data.Attributes.Contains("new_itemcode") ? data["new_itemcode"].ToString() : string.Empty,
                            ItemDesc = data.Attributes.Contains("new_itemdescription") ? data["new_itemdescription"].ToString() : string.Empty,
                            Quantity = data.Attributes.Contains("new_quantity") ? data["new_quantity"].ToString() : string.Empty,

Ok, Here is a simple example:

Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Money valueMoney = new Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Money(100);

string valueStr = valueMoney.ToString(); //this return "Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Money"

string valueStr2 = valueMoney.Value.ToString(); // this return "100"

Hope this help!

For your code, try this:

NetPrice = data.Attributes.Contains("new_netprice") ? data.GetAttributeValue<Money>("new_netprice").Value.ToString() : string.Empty

Money amount1 = new Money(25);
Money amount2 = new Money(30);

Console.WriteLine("Amount 1 " + amount1.Value.ToString());
Console.WriteLine("Amount 2 " + amount2.Value.ToString());

Output:

Amount 1 25

Amount 2 30

Hi,

try this

if your return type is string, follow this

UnitPrice =data.Attributes.Contains("new_unitprice") ? ((Money)data["new_unitprice"]).Value.ToString() : string.Empty

if your return type is decimal, ((Money)data["new_unitprice"]).Value

Hi Habeeb,

Issue is unitprice.value returns decimal value. but new_unitprice expects in money format.

So do like this : intelCRM.Attributes["new_unitprice"] = unitprice;

here i have converted decimal to money using

decimal nprice = Convert.ToDecimal(netPriceBox.Text);

Money netprice= new Money(nprice);

then adding the above money value in crm;

intelCRM.Attributes["new_netprice"] = netprice.Value;

if i don't need to get decimal value then how can we convert textbox type to money without using decimal type.

Thanks
