CRMQuote.RetrieveByPrincipal Method

The RetrieveByPrincipal method retrieves all quotes that are owned by a security principal (user or team).

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function RetrieveByPrincipal(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal Principal As CSecurityPrincipal,
  ByVal StateCodes As Integer(),
  ByVal ColumnSetXml As String
) As String
[C#]
public string RetrieveByPrincipal(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  CSecurityPrincipal  Principal,
  int[]  StateCodes,
  string  ColumnSetXml
);
[C++]
public: String* RetrieveByPrincipal(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  CSecurityPrincipal*  Principal,
  long  StateCodes __gc[],
  String*  ColumnSetXml
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. The caller must have the prvReadQuote privilege to perform this action. See CUserAuth.

Principal

Specifies the security principal for which opportunities are to be retrieved. See CSecurityPrincipal.

StateCodes

Specifies an array of state codes to find. See QUOTE_STATE.

ColumnSetXml

Specifies an XML string describing the set of columns that is to be retrieved. Passing "" or null returns all columns. You can find the valid column names in quote.xsd. See also ColumnSetXML Schema.

Return Value

Returns a String type that specifies the XML data containing the set of quotes requested. The fields that are returned depend on what fields are specified in the ColumnSetXml parameter. The XML schema is described by quote.xsd.

Remarks

If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.

All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}

Example

[C#]
// strServerName should be set with the name of the platform Web server
string strServerName = "myservername";

// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServerName + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";

// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

// CRMQuote proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMQuote   quote = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMQuote();
quote.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
quote.Url = strDir + "CRMQuote.srf";

string strErrorMsg;
string strColumnSetXml;

try
{
   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();

   // Set up the columns that you want to retrieve
   strColumnSetXml = "<columnset>";
   strColumnSetXml += "<column>name</column>";
   strColumnSetXml += "<column>accountid</column>";
   strColumnSetXml += "</columnset>";

   // Intialize the security principal
   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CSecurityPrincipal securityPrincipal = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CSecurityPrincipal();
   securityPrincipal.Id = userAuth.UserId;
   securityPrincipal.Type = Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.SecurityPrincipalType.sptUser;

   // An array of state codes to find
   int[] arrCodes = new int[] {Microsoft.CRM.Flags.INVOICE_STATE.INS_ACTIVE,Microsoft.CRM.Flags.QUOTE_STATE.QS_ACTIVE};

   // Retrieve the quotes for this security principal
   string strResultsXml = quote.RetrieveByPrincipal (userAuth, securityPrincipal, arrCodes, strColumnSetXml);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + " " + err.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + err.Source );
}
catch (Exception err)
{
   // Process other errors here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message );
}
