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, a GetMoveOutInfo request object and a GetMoveOutInfo response object. We can define and create those like this:
// Create a request and response objects
SWS.WSSoapClient service = new SWS.WSSoapClient();
SWS.GetMoveOutInfo_Request request = new SWS.GetMoveOutInfo_Request();
SWS.GetMoveOutInfo_Response response;
Here’s my sample code of the Request object.
// GetMoveOutInfo Request
request.SiteID = 123456;
request.AccountID = 123465;
request.RentalID = 123456;
request.MoveOutDate = DateTime.Today;
Finally we can call the method and pass across the login object and the request object to get our move out information. It’s a good idea to do this in a Try Catch block.
// Call the method that will load the response object
try
{
response = service.GetMoveOutInfo(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.

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, a GetEndRentalRules request object and a RULE_VALUES collection object for the response. We can define and create those like this:

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, a EndRental request object and a EndRental response object. We can define and create those like this:

Here’s my sample code of the Request object.
