Enums

Type

An enum that represents the valid options for the billing document type.

Value Description
Invoice Option that shows the object represented is an Invoice.
CreditNote Option that shows the object represented is a Credit Note.

ProcessState

State of a completion process.

Value Description
FAILED The process has failed.
PENDING The process is pending asynchronous results.
COMPLETE The process is complete.

Methods

completeDocuments

global static Map<Id, fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.ProcessResult> completeDocuments(Set<Id> billingDocumentIds)

Complete billing documents. The documents must be in draft state, have a least one line and not have a completion in progress. Applications may add further validation.

Input Parameters

Name Type Description
billingDocumentIds Set<Id> Set of IDs of billing documents to complete.

Return Value

Map of completion process results keyed on billing document Id.

verifyPermissionsForCalculateTax

global static fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxPermissionResponse verifyPermissionsForCalculateTax()

Verifies that the current user has sufficient permissions to calculate tax. The same check is used by calculateTax. We recommend that you call this before attempting to call calculateTax. For example, if you have a screen which calculates tax, you can call verifyPermissionsForCalculateTax when the user arrives on the screen to check that they have the correct permissions to use it.

Return Value

The results of the verification. See BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxPermissionResponse for details.

verifyAsyncPermissionsForCalculateTax

global static fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxAsyncPermissionResponse verifyAsyncPermissionsForCalculateTax()

Verifies that the current user has sufficient permissions to calculate tax asynchronously. The same check is used by calculateTaxAsync. We recommend that you call this before attempting to call calculateTaxAsync. For example, if you have a screen which calculates tax asynchronously, you can call verifyAsyncPermissionsForCalculateTax when the user arrives on the screen to check that they have the correct permissions to use it.

Return Value

The results of the verification. See BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxAsyncPermissionResponse for details.

validateForCalculateTax

global static fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxValidationResponse validateForCalculateTax(fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxValidationDocument request)

Verifies that a billing document is valid for calculating tax. The same check is used by calculateTax and calculateTaxAsync. If the check fails then the calculate process does not work. We recommend that you call this before attempting to calculate tax. For example, if you have a process which attempts to calculate tax automatically, you can use validateForCalculateTax to filter out invalid documents upfront.

Input Parameters

Name Type Description
request fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxValidationDocument Tax fields from the billing document that are required for validation.

Exceptions Thrown

Value Description
Exceptions.InvalidArgumentException An exception is thrown if the request is null.

Return Value

The results of the validation. See BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxValidationResponse for details.

calculateTax

global static fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxResponse calculateTax(fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxRequest request)

Calculates tax on selected billing documents. Existing tax codes, rates, and values for the billing document line items are cleared and then populated with the calculated values.

Input Parameters

Name Type Description
request fferpcore.BillingDocumentService.CalculateTaxRequest The billing document IDs for calculating tax.

Exceptions Thrown

Value Description
Exceptions.InvalidArgumentException An exception is thrown if the request is null.
Exceptions.PermissionException An exception is thrown if the user does not have access to the objects and fields that are necessary to calculate tax. You can use BillingDocumentService.verifyPermissionsForCalculateTax to check, before calling this service, whether a user has the necessary permissions. The permission set 'FDN Common Concepts - Billing Documents - Calculate Tax' contains permissions needed to calculate tax. The user will also need access to the Account and Product2 objects.
System.DmlException An exception is thrown if the database operation to update billing document line items fails.

Return Value

The results of calculating tax, showing which billing documents have been successful.

Sample Code

//Note: This sample code is for demonstration purposes only. It is not intended for
//use in a production environment, is not guaranteed against defects or errors, and
//is in no way optimized or streamlined.

/**
 * This example shows a simple controller class which allows a user to calculate tax for several billing documents selected from a list view.
 * It checks first whether a user has access to the required objects. If they do not then it shows any errors and does not proceed.
 * When the user tries to calculate tax it checks whether any documents are invalid, and removes them from the request. All valid documents
 * are sent to have tax calculated. Any errors encountered are shown on the screen.
 * Note that this is only appropriate for dealing with a small number of billing documents which do not have many lines, because all the documents will
 * be updated in a single transaction and so may run into Salesforce platform limits on the amount of work that can be performed. For larger
 * documents calculateTaxAsync is appropriate instead, and the permission check would be replaced with a call to verifyAsyncPermissionsForCalculateTax.
