Scripting

BOI app against 2016.04 standard entering AR invoices. File layout say the KPRIMARY:InvoiceNo & InvoiceType. Code: retVal = AR_Invoice_bus.nSetKeyValue(""InvoiceNo$"", sInvoice) 'retval = 1 retVal = AR_Invoice_bus.nSetKeyValue(""InvoiceType$"", sInvType) 'retval = 1 retVal = AR_Invoice_bus.nSetKey() 'retval = 2 AR_Invoice_bus.sLastErrorMsg = ""The Invoice no. - is invalid"" Happens with multiple invoice numbers, all of which work in the UI or via VI. Is there some other field that needs to be included in the key, despite what the file layout doc says? Or some other problem?

I can't get to my file layouts at the moment, but isn't there a SeqNo?

try cstr(sInvoice) and zerofill if numeric value

The sequence number only appears in history. Invoice numbers are already strings zero-filled to 7 characters.

How do you have AR_Invoice_bus defined?

Dim AR_Invoice_bus as Object ... AR_Invoice_bus = oPVX.NewObject(""AR_Invoice_bus"", oSS)

Batching enabled?

Yes, and it gets a batch number successfully and the batch is there after the program errors

If you're getting retVal = 2 then you are creating a new invoice. Isn't that what you want? Maybe the LastErrorMsg is a ""false positive.

Yes what Mike just said. It may just be the current LastErrorMsg but you can at this point do your nSetValue's

Well...duh...Thank you @MichaelNottoli and @AlnoorCassim ! Is there anything that documents what calls return something other than 1 for success?

Also be sure your invoice-type field is valid.
