EntityFactory.Create
Posted: 09 Jun 10 4:50 AM

Hi all
When creating a new Contact/Account, I need to also create the leadsource for these. The account I have done but the contact Leadsource is slightly different.
Am I able to use
IContactLeadSource CLS = EntityFactory.Create();
If so has anyone got code I can look at to see how it all works and what values I need. for example
CLS.LeadDate = DateTime.Now;
CLS.LeadSource.AbbrevDescription = lueLeadSource.LookupResultValue.ToString();
Thanks in advance for any help given

Yes you can use that, the code would be something like (angle brackets will be taken out by this site so I have replaced them with 3 quotes (''') instead):
Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IContactLeadSource cls = Sage.Platform.EntityFactory.Create'''Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IContactLeadSource'''();
cls.LeadDate = DateTime.Now;
....property setting/....
cls.Save();
contact.LeadSource = cls;
contact.Save();
voila...
Off the top of my head but should be correct. Not sure about the relationship between contact and leadsource - it may be a one to many. If so something like:
contact.LeadSources.Add(cls);
Cheers,
Nick

Thanks for the reply Nick
I am getting the following error message
could not insert: [Sage.SalesLogix.Entities.ContactLeadSource#Sage.SalesLogix.Entities.ContactLeadSource][SQL: INSERT INTO CONTACT_LEADSOURCE (CREATEDATE, CREATEUSER, LEADDATE, MODIFYDATE, MODIFYUSER, CONTACTID, LEADSOURCEID) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)]:
The statement has been terminated. : Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'LEADSOURCEID', table 'SalesLogix_Dev.sysdba.CONTACT_LEADSOURCE'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
my current code is
IContactLeadSource CLS = EntityFactory.Create();
CLS.Contact = contact;
CLS.LeadDate = DateTime.Now;
CLS.Save();
contact.LeadSources.Add(CLS);
contact.Save();
When ever I try to add CLS.LeadSource.id or CLS.LeadSourceID it gives an error message that these are read only fields, do you know what I should be using? |

Ah yes of course. The ContactLeadSource entity is a LeadSource and a COntact joined, so you would firstly create a LeadSource entry. I would guess by doing an a GetById..
Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ILeadSource ls = Sage.Platform.EntityFactory.GetById'''Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ILeadSource'''('THE ID OF THE LEADSOURCE YOU WANT (YOU MAY NEED TO DO A SQL/HQL STATEMENT TO GET THIS');
IContactLeadSource.LeadSource = ls
Now do the rest of the example code...
Cheers,

Sorry your lueLeadSource.LookupResultsValue (casted as a Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ILeadSource) will give you your LeadSource entity, so no need to do the getbyid specified.
Cheers,
