Copy A/R Draft Invoice to Invoice

Question

How do we convert open draft A/R Invoice to Invoice ?
If any one can help me with the code...

Answer 1

I think I read somewhere that this feature was being added in 8.82, but there is not any way of doing it easily through the DI-API in current versions.
Here is a sample from the SDK help to do it through XML.
This sample saves a draft document to xml and then creates a new order based on the xml.
Private Sub cmdDraftToOrder_Click()
    Dim pDraft As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
    Set pDraft = vCmp.GetBusinessObject(oDrafts)
    Dim pOrder As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
    vCmp.XmlExportType = xet_ExportImportMode
    vCmp.XMLAsString = False
    pDraft.GetByKey (3)
    pDraft.SaveXML ("c:\drafts.xml")
    'Here you should add a code that will change the Object's
    'value from 112 (Drafts) to 17 (Orders) and also you should
    'remove the DocObjectCode node from the xml. You can use any
    'xml parser.
    'Create a new order
    Set pOrder = vCmp.GetBusinessObjectFromXML("c:\drafts.xml", 0)
    pOrder.Add
End Sub
Otherwise, you essentially need to read the necessary fields from the draft, create and add an invoice document, and then cancel or remove the draft.
