Adds a specified Promotion or Discount (PCD) to a rental item. See ApplyCreditToAssessments for applying credits.

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 ApplyPCDs request object and an ApplyPCDs response object.  We can define and create those like this:

// Create request and response objects
SWS.WSSoapClient service = new SWS.WSSoapClient();
SWS.ApplyPCDs_Request request = new SWS.ApplyPCDs_Request();
SWS.ApplyPCDs_Response response;

We then fill in the data for the request:

//Applies a PCD to a rental
request.OrgID = 123456;
request.SiteID = 123456;
request.RentalID = 123456;
request.PCDItem.PCD_ID = 123456;
request.PCDItem.EffDate = DateTime.Today;
request.PCDItem.DiscountAmount = 10;
request.PCDItem.RevenueCategory = 1;
request.PCDItem.IsPromoDiscCredit = SWS.PCDType.Promotion;

Finally we can call the method and pass across the login object and the request object to apply our PCDs. 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.ApplyPCDs(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.
