I can see how I can recall an existing transaction, but they're all by ID. How do I search for the transaction ID of an existing transaction? Specifically looking for CustomerInvoices and checks. Am I just missing it in the LookupID function?

Thanks,

The CenterPoint SDK doesn't allow for a Transaction Lookup like it does for maintenance items, such as Customers and Sales Items.
The SDK is actually being depreciated for 3rd party development, instead, we would recommend using the new REST API which does have methods for searching for Customer Invoices and Receipts.

Alternatively, you could pull Customer Invoice/Receipt information from an applicable report using the Data Browser tool.

You can find more detail on the REST API here: https://www.redwingsoftw...om/home/developer-portal

Aaron,
Thank you for the information.
I understand that the API is being phased out, but the REST API in its current state doesn't meet my needs. I need a batch job to run via the task schedule where a user is not logged into the computer. Is there a way to do this with the REST API that I'm missing? If not, what is the answer for the need for automated interfaces?

Thanks,
Mark

Mark,

Currently, no, you couldn't utilize the REST API on a machine that was logged-out of Windows.
You could install CenterPoint (and the REST API service) on a separate machine specifically for the interface.
CenterPoint itself doesn't have to be logged-in or running for the REST API service to work.

The alternative would be to use the Data Browser tool with the command line interface, which lends itself to Scheduled Task-based operations.
