LineItemGroups Component

Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors

Generates a group aggregate for use in another component's Update request.

Syntax

TiqbLineItemGroups

Remarks

There is not exposed a way to directly edit the contents of a line item group when submitting an Update request with a component from this package. You can change the Quantity, but you cannot change the line items contained inside the group line. The LineItemGroups component is used to parse a line item group aggregate. You may then make changes to the individual line items, and then call the GetGroupUpdateAggregate to return an xml aggregate containing your changes. This is then set to the Aggregate property of the line you wish to modify in your Update.

For instance, the following code changes the BillableStatus of all line items and line item groups in the Bill retrieved from QuickBooks.

Bill.Get("123456"); for (int i = 0; i < Bill1.LineItems.Count; i++) { if (!Bill.LineItems[i].GroupName.Equals("")) { // this is a group line LineItemGroups.GroupType = gtBill; LineItemGroups.ParseAggregate(Bill.LineItems[0].Aggregate); for (int j = 0; j < LineItemGroups.LineItems.Count) { LineItemGroups.LineItems[j].BillableStatus = bsHasBeenBilled; } LineItemGroups.QBXMLVersion = Bill.QBXMLVersion; // so that the proper fields are included in the update aggregate. Bill1.LineItems[i].Aggregate = LineItemGroups.GetGroupUpdateAggregate(); } else { // regular line item Bill.LineItems[i].BillableStatus = bsHasBeenBilled; } } Bill.Update();

Description Property (LineItemGroups Component)

A string description of the item group specified by GroupName or GroupId .

Syntax

__property String Description = { read=FDescription };

Default Value

Remarks

This property will contain the description of the group as returned by QuickBooks.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

String

GroupId Property (LineItemGroups Component)

Reference to a group of line items.

Syntax

__property String GroupId = { read=FGroupId, write=FSetGroupId };

Default Value

Remarks

Line item groups represent sets of items that are grouped together.

A line item group is a predefined shortcut within QuickBooks. For example, a "Cheeseburger Meal" might consist of a cheeseburger, an order of french fries, and a soft drink. To include an item group in a transaction one should simply set the value of ItemGroup, and optionally, of ItemQuantity. QuickBooks will automatically expand the group into its constituent items. This will send an ItemGroup instead of a regular Item on for this index.

When an ItemGroup is returned from QuickBooks it contains xml aggregates of all of the items in the group you specified. You may access the group's regular properties (total Amount, Quantity, and Description), but the line items returned are not normally accessible. However, you may parse the returned line items by passing the contents of the Aggregate property to the LineItemGroups component. You may use the LineItemGroups component to view or change the contents of the line items, and then pass the xml aggregate generated by the component back to the Aggregate field of the original\ object to use in an Update transaction.

ItemAggregate Property (LineItemGroups Component)

Contains an XML aggregate of the line item.

Syntax

__property String ItemAggregate[int ItemIndex] = { read=FItemAggregate, write=FSetItemAggregate };

Default Value

Remarks

Contains an XML aggregate of the line item. If the line item has not been modified since receiving a response from QuickBooks, the exact LineRet aggregate that QuickBooks returned will be contained in this XML aggregate. However, if you have made changes to the this line item's properties the ItemAggregate property will re-generate the line item XML with the new data.

If you set the other line item properties and then query the ItemAggregate, a LineRet aggregate will be generated from the currently set properties.

You may set this property with raw xml. So long as you do not modify any other properties (forcing the line item to regenerate based on new changes), the xml will be sent as-is to the QuickBooks request processor. It is essential that you properly format the XML that you place in this property. When setting this property manually, the component will send exactly what you have set. You must ensure your xml is appropriate for the action you are attempting. For instance, if you are Adding an Invoice, you must ensure the outer tags are "InvoiceLineAdd". If Modifying an Invoice, the outer tags must be "InvoiceLineMod".

If you do not expressly set the ItemAggregate field with your own custom XML, all of this will be taken care of you automatically by the component.

Each line item is represented by a number of properties, each prefixed by Item (see the list of properties for individual components for details). Properties such as ItemQuantity and ItemDescription are always present; some properties are found in only certain types of transactions.

Item is a reference to a kind of item, predefined within QuickBooks. Generally items defined within QuickBooks have default values for ItemDescription, etc., and if only Item is set when adding a record to QuickBooks, the other properties will be set automatically.

This component is used to create a single item. However, any InQB component may be set with an unlimited number of these items. For example:

Invoice.ItemCount = 3 LineItems.ItemName = "Wingnut" LineItems.Quantity = 8 Invoice.ItemAggregate[0] = LineItems.GetAggregate() LineItems.ItemName = "Shovel" LineItems.Quantity = 1 Invoice.ItemAggregate[1] = LineItems.GetAggregate() LineItems.ItemName = "Mower blade" LineItems.Quantity = 1 Invoice.ItemAggregate[2] = LineItems.GetAggregate()

Data Type

String

Config Method (LineItemGroups Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

GetGroupUpdateAggregate Method (LineItemGroups Component)

Generates a group aggregate for use in another component's Update request.

Syntax

String __fastcall GetGroupUpdateAggregate();

Remarks

For instance, the following code changes the BillableStatus of all line items and line item groups in the Bill retrieved from QuickBooks.

ParseAggregate Method (LineItemGroups Component)

Parses the aggregate returned from another component's ItemAggregate property.

Syntax

void __fastcall ParseAggregate(String Aggregate);

Remarks

This method takes the XML aggregate returned from any component's ItemAggregate property, and then fills all the properties of this component. For example:

Invoice.Add() For (i = 0 to Invoice.ItemCount - 1) LineItems.ParseAggregate(Invoice.ItemAggregate[0]) Debug.Print(LineItems.ItemName & VbTab & LineItems.Quantity & VbTab & LineItems.Amount) Next

Reset Method (LineItemGroups Component)

Resets this component to its default state.

Syntax

void __fastcall Reset();

Remarks

This method clears all properties and returns the component to its default state.

Error Event (LineItemGroups Component)

Information about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TiqbLineItemGroupsErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TiqbLineItemGroupsErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TiqbLineItemGroupsErrorEventParams *e);
__property TiqbLineItemGroupsErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

Config Settings (LineItemGroups Component)

The component accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo: Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.
