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();
}
