C Cashbook Batches

Cashbook Batches can be created and populated by the SDK. However they cannot be processed through the SDK.

The following example displays how to create and save a Cashbook Batch.

{

   string BatchNum = "CB001";
   //check if Batch code exists in pastel
   if (CashbookBatch.FindByCode(BatchNum) == -1)
   {
       // Batch code does not exist, so create it
       CashbookBatch createbatch = new CashbookBatch();
       createbatch.Code = BatchNum;
       createbatch.Description = "CB Batch";
       createbatch.Owner = new Agent("Admin");
       createbatch.Save();
   }

   CashbookBatch batch = new CashbookBatch(BatchNum);

   CashbookBatchDetail detail = new CashbookBatchDetail();
   detail.Date = DateTime.Today;
   detail.LineModule = CashbookBatchDetail.Module.Ledger;//Specify the line module
   detail.Account = new GLAccount("Advertising");
   detail.Credit = 500;
   detail.Description = "Ledger Transaction";
   detail.Reference = "Ref001";
   detail.Tax = 50;
   detail.TaxType = new TaxRate(1);//Specify a tax type
   detail.TaxAccount = new GLAccount("Accruals");//Specify a tax account
   batch.Detail.Add(detail);
   batch.Save();//Save each CashbookBatchDetail seperately or comment out to save all together

   detail = new CashbookBatchDetail();
   detail.Date = DateTime.Today;
   detail.LineModule = CashbookBatchDetail.Module.Payables;
   detail.Supplier = new Supplier("Supplier1");
   detail.Debit = 500;
   detail.Description = "Supplier Transaction";
   detail.Reference = "Ref001";
   batch.Detail.Add(detail);
   batch.Save();

   detail = new CashbookBatchDetail();
   detail.Date = DateTime.Today;
   detail.LineModule = CashbookBatchDetail.Module.Receivables;
   detail.Customer = new Customer("Customer1");
   detail.Debit = 500;
   detail.Description = "Customer Transaction";
   detail.Reference = "Ref001";
   batch.Detail.Add(detail);
   batch.Save();

   //If required the clone method can be used to copy the previous line
   batch = new CashbookBatch(batch.Code);
   batch.Detail.Add(detail.Clone());
   batch.Save();
