Importing Customers, vendors and products in AX 2012

People is starting to get in and I couldn ' t be happier about it!! There is a lot of interest on services so I decided to write a couple different simple examples of what to call document SE  Rvices in AX. I apologize for the formatting of code in this text editor, I promise when I wrote it, it looked like normal code:)

This calls the vendor service:

Using System;

Using System.Collections.Generic;

Using System.Linq;

Using System.Text;

Using Consoleapplication9.vendors;

Namespace ConsoleApplication9

{

Class Program

{

static void Main (string[] args)

{

Vendtableserviceclient proxy = new Vendtableserviceclient ();

CallContext context = new CallContext ();

Context.company = "CEU";  New class that replaces AX endpoints.  It makes it obvious which company is importing data into. I Love this class!!

axdvendtable vendor = new axdvendtable ();

axdentity_vendtable[] Vendtables = new Axdentity_vendtable[1];

Axdentity_vendtable vendtable = new axdentity_vendtable ();

Vendtable.accountnum = "877778";            If your number sequences for vendor accounts is set to manual set this property Vendtable.currency = "USD"; Vendtable.vendgroup = "10";

Vendtable.name = "My Vendor Test Name";

Create the party record

Axdentity_dirpartytable_dirperson Party = new Axdentity_dirpartytable_dirperson ();

Party. Namealias = "First2";

Set the name fields

Axdentity_personname personname = new Axdentity_personname ();

Personname.firstname = "First2";

Personname.middlename = "Middle2";

Personname.lastname = "Last2";

Add the names to the party record and set the name sequence

Party. PersonName = new Axdentity_personname[1] {personname};

Party.            Namesequence = "Firstlast"; vendtable.dirpartytable = new axdentity_dirpartytable_dirpartytable[1] {party};

Vendtables[0] = VendTable;

Vendor. VendTable = Vendtables;

Proxy.create (context, vendor);

}

}

}

This one was for customers:

Customerserviceclient proxy = new Customerserviceclient ();             CallContext context = new CallContext (); Context.company = "CEU";

Axdcustomer customer = new Axdcustomer ();

            axdentity_custtable CustTable = new axdentity _custtable ();             custtable.accountnum = "998877";             custtable.currency = "USD";             Custtable.custgroup = "20";             Custtable.onetimecustomer = Axdexttype_ Onetimecustomer.yes;             custtable.onetimecustomerspecified = true;

Create the party record Axdentity_dirparty_dirperson Party = new Axdentity_dirparty_dirperson (); Party. Namealias = "Becky";

Set the name fields Axdentity_personname personname = new Axdentity_personname ();             Personname.firstname = "Becky";             Personname.middlename = "Iliveforthis"; Personname.lastname = "Newell";

           //add The names to the party record and set the NAM E Sequence             party. PersonName = new Axdentity_personname[1] {personname};             party. Namesequence = "Firstlast";

           //create a postal address              Axdentity_dirpartypostaladdressview address = new Axdentity_ Dirpartypostaladdressview ();             address. LocationName = "Location Name";             address. Street = "2122 NE 5th St";             address. City = "Beverly Hills";             address. State = "CA";             address. Countryregionid = "USA";             address. ZipCode = "90210";             address. Roles = "Home;delivery";

           //create an electronic address              Axdentity_dirpartycontactinfoview electronicaddress = new Axdentity_dirpartycontactinfoview ();             electronicaddress.locationname = "Contact Email ";             Electronicaddress.type = axdenum_ Logisticselectronicaddressmethodtype.email;             electronicaddress.typespecified = true;             electronicaddress.locator = "[email protected] ";             electronicaddress.roles = "Home";

ADD the addresses to the party record and the party to the CustTable record custtable.dirparty = new Axdenti             TY_DIRPARTY_DIRPARTYTABLE[1] {party}; Custtable.dirparty[0].             Dirpartypostaladdressview = new axdentity_dirpartypostaladdressview[1] {address}; Custtable.dirparty[0]. Dirpartycontactinfoview = new Axdentity_dirpartycontactinfoview[1] {electronicaddress};

Add the CustTable record to the customer entity customer. CustTable = new Axdentity_custtable[1] {CustTable};

Create the customer proxy.create (context, customer);
