CRMDiscountType.Activate Method
The Activate method activates a discount type.
Syntax
[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub Activate(
ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
ByVal strDiscountTypeId As String,
ByVal Status As Integer
)
[C#]
public void Activate(
CUserAuth Caller,
string strDiscountTypeId,
int Status
);
[C++]
public: void Activate(
CUserAuth* Caller,
String* strDiscountTypeId,
long Status
);
Parameters
Caller
Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvWriteProduct privilege and access rights on the object to be activated. See CUserAuth.
DiscountTypeId
Specifies the ID of the discount type to be activated.
Status
Specifies the new status of the discount type. 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}

string strDir = "https://" + strServer + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";
