API browser of generalInvoiceRequest440 COM module


/images/arrow_right.png IGeneralInvoiceRequest::SetReminder method
Sets the reminder object reference parameters - in which case the all invoice object reference parameters must be defined.
 
The credit, invoice and reminder object references (if supplied in the request) form a object reference chain (credit -> invoice -> reminder) with the reminder as topmost object reference if supplied in the request otherwise the invoice is the topmost object reference (the invoice object is mandatory in all cases!). The page "object reference" provides an in-depth description of the concepts of "object reference", "object reference chain", and "topmost object reference". 		space

/images/arrow_right.png Calling argument description
[in] BSTR bstrRequestReminderID The request ID is the main software's identification of the reminder ("Mahnnummer").
 
This is one of 3 identifiers that form the reminder object reference.
[in] DATE dRequestReminderDate The request date is the main software's date of the reminder request ("Mahndatum").
 
This is one of 3 identifiers that form the reminder object reference.
[in] long lRequestReminderTimestamp This is a UNIX timestamp defined at the moment of the reminder infoset generation. Set this variable 0 to indicate the generation of a new reminder object reference. The IGeneralInvoiceRequestManager::GetXML and/or IGeneralInvoiceRequestManager::Print method will return the timestamp that must be used from that point on as 3rd parameter of the object reference.
 
This is one of 3 identifiers that form the reminder object reference. The timestamp will be generated once for a certain reminder object reference and thereafter the timestamp is always referenced.
[in] long lReminderLevel The lReminderLevel is the main software's reminder level ("Mahnstufe") which must be between 1 and 3.
[in] BSTR bstrReminderText A reminder text that is either in plain text format or RTF format.
 
Note that the reminder text is printed instead of the remark if bstrReminderText is set here.
[in] double dAmountReminder The optional reminder charge.
[out, retval] VARIANT_BOOL *pbStatus Return status of the method. If pbStatus is VARIANT_FALSE then an error occurred and GetAbortInfo should be called to retrieve the error string.
 
/images/arrow_right.png C/C++ return value
S_OK This value is returned if the function call was successful or if the return value of a boolean method signalling a true value. In this case the VARIANT_BOOL is set to VARIANT_TRUE.
S_FALSE This is the return value of a boolean method signalling a false return value. In this case the VARIANT_BOOL is set to VARIANT_FALSE.
E_name This value is returned if the function call was unsuccessful and an error exception was generated. Note that if you are using SmartPointers an exception is thrown under these conditions.
