CRMContract.Cancel Method

The Cancel method sets the state of a contract to Canceled. The contract must be in either Active or Invoiced state in order to be canceled successfully.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub Cancel(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal ContractId As String,
  ByVal CancellationDate As String,
  ByVal Status As Integer
)
[C#]
public void Cancel(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  ContractId,
  string  CancellationDate,
  int  Status
);
[C++]
public: void Cancel(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  ContractId,
  String*  CancellationDate,
  long  Status
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. See CUserAuth.

ContractId

Specifies the ID of the contract to be canceled.

CancellationDate

Specifies the cancellation date.

Status

Specifies the state of the contract. You can use this parameter to specify application status. See Remarks.

Return Value

No return value.

Remarks

Note   The Status parameter corresponds to Status Reason in the Microsoft CRM application. If you pass -1 for this parameter, the platform sets the status to the appropriate value for the Microsoft CRM application. You can use the RetrieveStatus method to retrieve the status codes used in the application.

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";

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

string strErrorMsg;
string strContractId = "{A87D821C-DF25-4FA0-A4F6-E2F41AB2B336}"; 
string date = DateTime.Now.AddDays(5).ToString("s");
try
{
   Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();

   // Invoice the contract
   contract.Invoice(userAuth, strContractId, -1);

   // Hold the contract
   contract.Hold(userAuth, strContractId, -1);

   // Release the hold on the contract
   contract.ReleaseHold(userAuth, strContractId, -1);

   // Cancel the contract
   contract.Cancel(userAuth, strContractId, date, -1);
}
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 );
}
