It's true, you cannot use it in Classic client. But of course, you can call the WebService from within NAV classic client.
See e.g. http://mibuso.com/blogs/ara3n/2009/01/2 ... companies/

This is what I am after. People will be emailing orders from a website or from within NAV. This should let them both call the same service, shich runs the same report, formatted in Visual Studio.

Will look better and only one report to manage.

Will try tomorrow and let you know how I get on.

Thanks

Have made a change

added user and password to this line


XmlHttp.open('POST','http://figaro:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS/CRONUS/Codeunit/WebFunctions',0, 'user',
'Password');

Now get Http Error 500: Internal Server Error

It is now saying That my function name TK_CreatePOPDF is invalid. Still digging

Possibly Progress

In case anyone is Interested the code was as follows

CU 50000 called web services has a function



TK_CreatePOPDF(PONo : Code[20]) : Text[1000]
PH.INIT;
PH.RESET;
PH.SETRANGE("No.", PONo);

filename := 'C:\temp\';
filename += FORMAT(CREATEGUID);
filename := DELCHR(filename, '=', '{-}');
filename += '.pdf';
REPORT.SAVEASPDF(10576, filename, PH);

EXIT(filename);




The Publish this CU as a web Service called "WebFunctions"


The add a function to the Purchase Header


CreatePDF()
IF ISCLEAR(XmlDoc) THEN
CREATE(XmlDoc);
IF ISCLEAR(XmlHttp) THEN
CREATE(XmlHttp);

XmlHttp.open('POST','http://figaro:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS/CRONUS/Codeunit/WebFunctions',0, 'username',
'password');
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'text/xml; charset=utf-8');
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader('SOAPAction','TK_CreatePOPDF');

XmlHttp.setTimeouts(10000,10000,10000,0); //change last parameter to zero to wait till webservice finishes the job

XmlHttp.send('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">' +
'<soap:Body><TK_CreatePOPDF xmlns="urn:microsoft-dynamics-schemas/codeunit/WebFunctions">' +
'<pONo>'+"No."+'</pONo>'+
'</TK_CreatePOPDF></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>');




IF XmlHttp.status <> 200 THEN
MESSAGE('Http Error ' + ' ' + FORMAT(XmlHttp.status) + ': ' + XmlHttp.statusText);

XmlDoc.async := FALSE;
XmlDoc.load(XmlHttp.responseBody);

XmlNode := XmlDoc.selectSingleNode('//Soap:Envelope/Soap:Body/TK_CreatePOPDF_Result/return_value/');

IF NOT ISCLEAR(XmlNode) THEN BEGIN
MESSAGE('PDF created on server in '+XmlNode.text);
END ELSE BEGIN
XmlDoc.save('C:\temp\response.xml');
HYPERLINK('C:\temp\response.xml');
ERROR(Text50002);
END;

CLEAR(XmlDoc);
CLEAR(XmlHttp)





Now NAV can call "Purchase Header".CreatePDF

The web site where some users enter PO's can call WebFunctions.TK_CreatePOPDF

I now will update this to email the PDF


Thanks for all the help
