CRMDiscountType.UpdateAndRetrieve Method

The UpdateAndRetrieve method updates and then retrieves a discount type.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function UpdateAndRetrieve(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal strDiscountTypeId As String,
  ByVal InDiscountTypeXml As String
) As String
[C#]
public string UpdateAndRetrieve(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  strDiscountTypeId,
  string  InDiscountTypeXml
);
[C++]
public: String* UpdateAndRetrieve(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  strDiscountTypeId,
  String*  InDiscountTypeXml
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvWriteProduct and prvReadProduct privileges and access rights on the object to be updated. See CUserAuth.

DiscountTypeId

Specifies the ID of the discount type to be updated.

InDiscountTypeXml

Specifies the XML string representing a discount type. The XML schema is described by discounttype.xsd.

Return Value

Returns a String type that specifies the XML data representing the discount type. The XML schema is described by discounttype.xsd.

Remarks

The XML string returned from this method does not contain elements for fields where the value is null or contains empty strings. This improves performance by not sending more XML data than is necessary from the server to the client.

If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.

All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}

Example

[C#]
// strServer should be set with the name of the platform Web server
string strServer = "myservername";

// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServer + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";

// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

// CRMDiscountType proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRMDiscountType  discounttype = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRMDiscountType();
discounttype.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
discounttype.Url = strDir + "CRMDiscounttype.srf";

string strErrorMsg;
try
{
   Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();
   
   string strDiscountTypeId = "{48EAEC97-AK9E-6671-9022-7DKCFBD0F0E3}";

   // Set up the XML string for the discount type
   string xml = "<discounttype>";
   xml += "<name>Test Discount Type 1</name>";
   xml += "<description>description 2</description>";
   xml += "</discounttype>";

   // Update and then retrieve the discount type
   string strResultsXml = discounttype.UpdateAndRetrieve(userAuth, strDiscountTypeId, xml);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + " " + err.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + err.Source );
}
catch (Exception err)
{
   // Process other errors here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message );
