Yardi Store Developer eXchange

Adds a rental item service (i.e., 24 Hour Access, Invoicing, etc.) to a specified rental item. Rental services are created by an admin in the application and some services, such as invoicing, may not create a charge on the rental.

Parameters

Returned Parameters

Example

As with every method we need to pass in credentials. We do this with the LookupUser request object.

We’ll assume you’ve got a web reference, let’s name it SWS, in your Visual Studio project.  At this point we need to our objects.  We’ll need the standard service object, an AddService request object and an AddService response object.  We can define and create those like this:

// Create request and response objects and call getservices (See GetAvailableServices for details)
SWS.WSSoapClient service = new SWS.WSSoapClient();
SWS.AddService_Request request = new SWS.AddService_Request();
SWS.AddService_Response response;

SWS.GetAvailableServices_Response service_response = service.GetAvailableServices(user_request, services_request);

Here’s my sample code of the Request object.

//Add a service to a rental
request.SiteID = 123456;
request.RentalID = 123456;
request.Service = service_response.Details[0];

Finally we can call the method and pass across the login object and the request object to adding a service. It’s a good idea to do this in a Try Catch block.

try
{
   // Call the method that will load the response object
   response = service.AddService(user_request, request);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
   MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}

Note that if something goes wrong the service will respond with an exception. You’ll want to take a look at that message returned in that exception so it can be debugged.
