SWS GetPartialPayRules Method

May 23, 2011 Leave a comment

Retrieves site rule values that determine if and how partial payments are applied.

Parameters

Name DataType Is Required
SiteID Long Required
Description The site’s ID number. This can be found using the GetSiteList method.

Returned Parameters

Name DataType
AllowsPartialPay String
Description Indicates if the site allows partial payments (“True”) or not (“False”).
AllowsPartialRentPay String
Description Indicates if the site allows partial payment son delinquent rentals (“True”) or not (“False”).
PriorityList ArrayOfString1
Description The order, highest to lowest priority, in which any payment will apply to assessments.

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

// Create a request and response objects
SWS.WSSoapClient service = new SWS.WSSoapClient();
SWS.GetPartialPayRules_Request request = new SWS.GetPartialPayRules_Request();
SWS.GetPartialPayRules_Response response;

Here’s my sample code of the Request object.

// GetPartialPayRules Request
request.SiteID = 123456;

Finally we can call the method and pass across the login object and the request object to get our partial pay rules. 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.GetPartialPayRules(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.

Returned Parameters

Name DataType
Succeeded Boolean
Description Indicates that the reservation was cancelled successfully (“True”) or not (“False”).

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

// Create a request and response objects and RefundData and ContactInfo objects.
SWS.WSSoapClient service = new SWS.WSSoapClient();
SWS.CancelReservation_Request res_request = new SWS.CancelReservation_Request();
SWS.RefundData refund_request = new SWS.RefundData();
SWS.CancelReservationCashCredit_Response response;

SWS.ContactInfo contact_info = new SWS.ContactInfo();

Here’s my sample code of the Request object.

// Contact Data
contact_info.AccountID = 123456;
contact_info.Address1 = "123 Main St.";
contact_info.City = "My Town";
contact_info.State = "UT";
contact_info.PostalCode = "00000";
contact_info.ContactName = "First Last";

// Refund Data
refund_request.ApplyRefundRentalID = 123456;
refund_request.RefundType = SWS.RefundTypes.CASH_CREDIT;

// To cancel reservations(s)
res_request.AcctID = 123456;
res_request.RentalIDs = new long?[] { 123456, 654321 };
res_request.LostDemandReason = SWS.Lost_Demand_Reasons.Availability;
res_request.LostDemandNotes = "Unit size no longer available";
res_request.ContactData = contact_info;

Finally we can call the method and pass across the login object and the request object to cancel the reservation. 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.CancelReservationCashCredit(user_request, res_request, 
refund_request);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
   MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
