Creating invoicedetail item Plugin problem

Question

Hi,

I was created a plugin which executes on new invoice item post create.

The problem is when invoice item was created automatically from order (button "create invoice")
the plugin is not executing.

If i create the invoice item manually it works properly.

any ideas?

thanks

Answer 1

there is no plugin to work for create invoice, plugin for preCreate only work when you create invoice manualy.

 

you can write .net assembly and call on button , you have to define your custom button and then call code that.

I wrote a custom plugin and registered it by PluginRegistrationTool.

It executes when new invoicedetail item was created and it links it to another custom entity lookup fileld.

It works fine only if the invoicedetail item is created manually.

I think that when invoicedetail item is created automatically form order, the plugin is not handling the created item.


Thanks,

My idea you have to mention the plugin for invoiced items  not on invoice details.

I have done it.

I wrote a custom activity workflow(windows workflow foundation)

I registered it and the workflow was added into crm, so i can run it from crm for the salesorderitem created

Hi there,

make sure that you register your plugin for a child pipeline execution.

Unless you've already done so, download latest version of plug in registration tool http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/crmplugin and try selecting child pipeline execution option during the plug-in registration.

See Parent and Child Pipelines in SDK documentation for more details about how parent/child pipelines are related and when they are executed.
