Set OEORDD.QTYSHIPPED

Post the order

Thanks, will try just now. Hope that does it.

I haven't actually tried this and don't do much with OE anymore but I do see that there is a Post under the list of operations OEOrders in the Web API (V2021) and if you look at the OrderDetails you will see QuantityShipped so I am assuming it would create a shipment if populated.

Here is a snippet of the JSON

"OrderDetails": [
{
"OrderUniquifier": 0,
"LineNumber": 0,
"LineType": "Item",
"Item": "string",

"StockItem": true,
"QuantityOrdered": 0,
"QuantityShipped": 0,
"QuantityBackordered": 0,
"QuantityShippedtodate": 0,
"OriginalQuantityOrdered": 0,
"POQuantityOrdered": 0,
"OrderUnitOfMeasure": "string",
"OrderUnitConversion": 0,

Just tried the update via the Advantage and it does not adjust the shipped quantity.

Updating the Sales Order sounds weird as a Shipment has other information related to it. Not only a quantity. There is a shipment document that is generated and and invoice related to that shipment. As an order can have multiple Shipments associated to it.

From the Gui, a shipment is not entered from the OE screen but within a Shipment Entry screen.

Thanks for the replies, but editing the OE is not working.

I have tried everything I can think of just to crash and burn every time.

Here is an example of my code. I am trying to post the shippment but it is not going in.

It does create a header for the shipment and a detail with 0 as shipped quantity. What I am doing with the details has no effect on the transaction.

var dbLink = CreateDbLink(session);
            View OEISHIH = dbLink.OpenView("OE0434");
            View OEISHID = dbLink.OpenView("OE0433");

Start with recording a macro of what you're trying to do.  The code above doesn't follow the correct logic.

This is just the basics and still needs work:

OESHI1header.Cancel
OESHI1header.Init
OESHI1headerFields("PROCESSCMD").PutWithoutVerification ("1")         ' Process OIP Command
OESHI1header.Process

OESHI1headerFields("ORDNUMBER").Value = "ORD000000000086"             ' Order Number
OESHI1headerFields("SHIP1ORDER").Value = "1"                          ' Generate Ship. from Single Order
OESHI1header.Process

OESHI1detail1Fields("LINENUM").PutWithoutVerification ("-1")          ' Line Number
OESHI1detail1.Read
OESHI1detail1Fields("QTYSHIPPED").Value = "2.0000"                    ' Quantity Shipped
OESHI1detail1.Update
OESHI1headerFields("OECOMMAND").Value = "4"                           ' Process O/E Command
OESHI1header.Process
OESHI1header.Insert

Thanks. I just went and click the Macro, did my thing. Copy paste the code a few changes and it worked! Thanks again. I was way off. Is that this "logical steps" are not that logical for me as I never used this before.

I think with your help I can be on my way. Din't knew about that Macro Option.
