[Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0][SQL Server]BudgetControlProcessProc ( in
SysRaiseErrorProc): Trying:exec BudgetControlCheckBudgetProc :BudgetControlCheckBudgetProc:
Trying:Initial insert #BSTDStage – BudgetSourceTrackingDetail:String or binary data would be
truncated.(8152) at line 369 at line 67

 

 

Solution: I found out of box length of Purchase Invoice number is 20. Some one extend the length and it is used notes like functionality. But extension of length did not reflect on BudgetControlCheckBudgetProc.

When we enter the Purchase Invoice number value as 20. Invoice is posted without error.

Updating Date Effective Tables in AX 2012, Dynamics 365 for finance and operations

May 21, 2018 by alirazazaidi

I was struggling to update Date Effective Table in Dynamics Ax 2012 R3. At least one hour of struggle, finally I update the required record.

 

Only good post which helps is by Agnela GoldBrg.

 

http://ibisinc.com/blog/updating-date-effective-tables-in-ax-2012/

 

One line tip from this post is on Date Effective table, The active record reference can be get with  of

DateTimeUtil::utcNow()

 

Its really small tip, yes learning and solving problem at hand waste hours.

 

Lets take a real world example We have to update Job detail with X++.

 

For HCMJobDetail table following way works for me.

 

hcmJobDetail=    HcmJobDetail::findByJob(hcmJob.RecId,DateTimeUtil::utcNow(),DateTimeUtil::utcNow(),true);

 

We can query on required table  with following  way

 

_validFrom = DateTimeUtil::utcNow();

_validTo =DateTimeUtil::utcNow();

 

select ValidTimeState(_validFrom, _validTo) hcmJobDetail

where hcmJobDetail.Job == _job;

 

 

The complete code snippet which works for me is here.

 

 

HcmJobDetail hcmJobDetail;

HcmJob hcmJob;

HCMJOBID  _id=’XyZ’;

date dateToday,

 

hcmJob = HcmJob::findByJob(_id);

 

_validFrom = DateTimeUtil::utcNow();

_validTo =DateTimeUtil::utcNow();

 

select ValidTimeState(_validFrom, _validTo) hcmJobDetail

where hcmJobDetail.Job == _job;

 

 

hcmJobDetail=    HcmJobDetail::findByJob(hcmJob.RecId,DateTimeUtil::utcNow(),DateTimeUtil::utcNow(),true);

if (hcmJobDetail!=null)

{

try

{

ttsBegin;

 

hcmJobDetail.validTimeStateUpdateMode(ValidTimeStateUpdate::Correction);

hcmJobDetail.SL_TempEndDate = today();

hcmJobDetail.SL_TempStartDate = today();

hcmJobDetail.Note = ” test and test”;

 

hcmJobDetail.update();

 

ttsCommit;

}

catch

{

ttsAbort;

HcmJob::CheckFailed(‘ Unable to update job’);

//    status  = SL_EntityStatus::Error;

}

}

}

 

 

}

System.Net.ProtocolViolationException: Cannot send a content-body with this verb-type. Dynamics Ax 2012 Json Service

May 9, 2018 by alirazazaidi

The piece of code you wrote, take long way to reach production server. And usually different errors occurs when we take code one server to other.  I test restful service code C# class and call it form X++  code multiple times and it works perfectly fine on QA. But when I took same code to Uat server it started throw following error

System.Net.ProtocolViolationException: Cannot send a content-body with this verb-type.

 

And why the same code works perfectly on DEV while calling same service method UAT throw errors.

 

 

 

 

Any how I found that I missed the request. Method = Post  in code snippet I used for service call. something like

 

request.Method = “POST”;

Json Service Call in Dynamics Ax 2012.

May 5, 2018 by alirazazaidi

Recently I got chance to call restful Json based service in Dynamics Ax 2012.

I used a C# class library and then add to AOT.  AX 2012

Json based service successfully called both client side and server side. Only tricky part was to make Json string or payload.

I used to make Json string something similar. Both works in C# as well as X++

 

 

payload += “{\”ApproversEmpCode\”:\””+ employeeCode +”\”,”;

payload += “\”message\”:\””+table.Message +” “+ strReplace(Message,”\'”,”`”)+”\”,”;

payload +=  “\”requestType\”:\”” +tableId2Name(TableId) +”\”,”;

payload += “\”transactionId\”:\””+int642str(RecId)+”\”}”;

 

 

Happy Daxing.
