Change your line "poEntry.SetKeyValue("PurchaseOrderNo", nextOrderNo);" to "poEntry.SetKey("PurchaseOrderNo", nextOrderNo);" and I believe it will work.  Generally, use SetKeyValue when you have multiple fields in the key to the table.  Then follow up with a SetKey().  When there is only 1 field in the key, just use SetKey(variable).

I goofed up.  Change your line to:  poEntry.SetKey(nextOrderNo);

When i try setkey (the way you mentioned above) Sage returns {"<Error: 88 in Method SETKEY>"}

Are you sure that you're getting the next Purchase Order number?  The method in PO_PurchaseOrder_bus to get it is  GetNextPurchaseOrderNo(value$).  Try using var nextOrderNo = poEntry.GetNextPurchaseOrderNo();

Yes we are using this in the code and using nextOrderNo

Try updating your code as follows:

var nextOrderNo = poEntry.nGetNextDocumentNumber();    <==  I don't see this command in the object reference for PO_PurchaseOrder_bus.  I think it will need to be changed to poEntry.nGetNextPurchaseOrderNo().  Just to get the code going why not hard code the PO number like you did for the date?

poEntry.nSetKey(nextOrderNo);
poEntry.nSetValue("PurchaseOrderDate$", "20231101");
poEntry.nSetValue("OrderType$", "S");
poEntry.nSetValue("APDivisionNo$", "00");
poEntry.nSetValue("VendorNo$", "0008000");

poEntry.nAddLine();

Trace.WriteLine(poEntry.Lines.GetKey());

poEntry.oLines.nSetValue("ItemCode$", "1001-HON-H252");
poEntry.oLines.nSetValue("QuantityOrdered", 2);

poEntry.oLines.nWrite();
poEntry.nWrite();

}
}

Fields that contain string values (including dates) must have the $ after the field name.  I also added "n" in front of all of your commands.  I don't program in c# so I'm no help on the syntax for it.  I think you need to refer to the lines object as oLines vs. Lines.  Here's some code from a script I did in vbscript:

vCompany = "ABC"
PathHome = "c:\sage\mas90\home"

Set oScript = CreateObject("ProvideX.Script")
oScript.Init (PathHome)

Set oSS = oScript.NewObject("SY_SESSION")
retVal = oSS.nlogon()

If retVal = 0 Then
    User = "username"
    Password = "userpassword"
    retVal = oSS.nSetUser(User, Password)
End If

If retVal = 0 Then
    MsgBox (oSS.sLastErrorMsg & vbCrLf & "Quiting")
    oSS.nCleanUp
    oSS.DropObject
    Set oSS = Nothing
    WScript.Quit
End If

retVal = oSS.nSetCompany(vCompanyTo)

If retVal = 0 Then
    MsgBox (oSS.sLastErrorMsg & vbCrLf & "Quiting")
    oSS.nCleanUp
    oSS.DropObject
    Set oSS = Nothing
    WScript.Quit
End If

vOrdDate = CStr(Year(objRS2(1))) & Right("00" & CStr(Month(objRS2(1))), 2) & Right("00" & CStr(Day(objRS2(1))), 2)

If Not (IsObject(oPO)) Then
    retVal = oSS.nSetDate("P/O", vOrdDate)
    retVal = oSS.nSetModule("P/O")
    retVal = oSS.nSetProgram(oSS.nLookupTask("PO_PurchaseOrder_UI"))
    Set oPO = oScript.NewObject("PO_PurchaseOrder_bus", oSS)
End If

retVal = oPO.nGetNextPurchaseOrderNo(vPO)
retVal = oPO.nSetKey(vPO)
retVal = oPO.nSetValue("APDivisionNo$", "00")
retVal = oPO.nSetValue("VendorNo$", vVend)
retVal = oPO.nSetValue("PurchaseOrderDate$", vOrdDate)

retVal = oPO.oLines.nAddLine()
retVal = oPO.oLines.nSetValue("ItemCode$", vIC)
retVal = oPO.oLines.nSetValue("ItemCodeDesc$", vICD)
retVal = oPO.oLines.nSetValue("QuantityOrdered", vQO)
retVal = oPO.oLines.nSetValue("CommentText$", vCmnt)
retVal = oPO.oLines.nWrite()
retVal = oPO.nWrite()

I eliminated some of the loops and didn't define all of the variables but you should be able to see the syntax and the flow of the script from here.  I hope this is helpful.  Thanks.

thank you so much!, i think there is definitely a custom script

Hi Ray P  do you have an example for writing the Goods Receipt to Sage? A PO Goods Receipt - i am having trouble posting one, it posts in the batch but does not have any lines

Here's a snippet of a process I made to set up Receipts of Goods for a whole PO at a time.  The source data is an Excel spreadsheet where only the PO number is entered.  The script brings in all lines on the PO and receives them in full.  I hope this helps.

retVal = oROG.nGetNextReceiptNo(vReceiptNo)
retVal = oROG.nSetKeyValue("ReceiptType$", "G")
retVal = oROG.nSetKeyValue("ReceiptNo$", vReceiptNo)
retVal = oROG.nSetKey()
retVal = oROG.nSetValue("PurchaseOrderNo$", vPO)
retVal = oROG.nApplyPurchaseOrderUpdate(vPO, "N", "Y", "N")
retVal = oROG.nApplyPurchaseOrderCopyLines(vLinesCopied)

If vInvoiceNo <> "" Then
retVal = oROG.nSetValue("InvoiceNo$", vInvoiceNo)
retVal = oROG.nSetValue("InvoiceDate$", vInvoiceDate)
End If

retVal = oROGLines.nWrite()
retVal = oROG.nWrite()

Just resolved this. I had done SetKeyValue but I also needed SetKey

Never mind. I was on the wrong issue.
