C# code to update the Logistics postal address through AIF.

In my second post of this series, I demonstrated the creation of document service for a new entity. The post also include the solution on how to add the related postal address using AIF document service.

In order to achieve this we have added  calls to some standard API's in prepareForSaveDetailsExtended() method of our service class.

In this post I am sharing the code which can be used to test the update operation on student entity with address.

In order to update the surrogate key indexed entity, we need to use the find operation for finding the entity key, and then based on the found entity key we can do the read operation which will return the Axd class instance which can be updated as per the requirement. Below is the code which will demonstrate the same requirement.

AxdStudentTable studentAxd = null;
CallContext context = new
CallContext();
context.Company = "EAM";

StudentTableServiceClient proxy = new StudentTableServiceClient();
try
{
studentAxd = proxy.read(context, Program.readCritera(rollNumber));
//Console.WriteLine("Read worked");
Program.updateCustomer(studentAxd, rollNumber);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
private static EntityKey[] readCritera(int rollNumber)
{
StudentTableServiceClient client = new StudentTableServiceClient();
AxdStudentTable localAxd = new AxdStudentTable();

CriteriaElement[] criteriaElements = new CriteriaElement[1];
criteriaElements[0] = new CriteriaElement();
criteriaElements[0].DataSourceName = "StudentTable";
criteriaElements[0].FieldName = "RollNumber";
criteriaElements[0].Value1 = rollNumber.ToString();
QueryCriteria queryCriteria = new QueryCriteria();
queryCriteria.CriteriaElement = criteriaElements;
CallContext readContext = new
CallContext();
readContext.Company = "EAM";
//Using find operation
localAxd = client.find(readContext, queryCriteria);
//Using read operation
EntityKey[] entityKeyList = new EntityKey[1];
EntityKey key = new EntityKey();
KeyField[] keyFields = new KeyField[1];
KeyField keyField = new KeyField();
keyField.Field = "RecID";


keyField.Value = localAxd.StudentTable[0].RecId.ToString();
keyFields[0] = keyField;
key.KeyData = keyFields;
entityKeyList[0] = key;
return entityKeyList;

In my next post I will demonstrate the use of methods of document service class which we can use for our customizations.
