Trying to Insert a ManualJournal into Xero with ODBC

I am trying to insert a manual journal entry into Xero using below SQL insert statement. And I get the following error. “A validation exception occurred: The total Debits (1.50) must equal total credits (0.00)" It suggests that cdata is not processing it as one API post but as 2 posts and Xero spits back an error because it expects both lines in the POST api. INSERT into ManualJournals ( JournalLine_AccountCode, JournalLine_LineAmount, Narration) VALUES (620, 1.50, 'Test1'), (611, -1.50, 'Test1');Any ideas would be appreciated.

EXCEEDED_ID_LIMIT: there are '600000' or more records deleted in the specified time period. Please retry getDeleted() call using a shorter time period.

I am using cdata sync and getting the error “EXCEEDED_ID_LIMIT: there are '600000' or more records deleted in the specified time period. Please retry getDeleted() call using a shorter time period.”I have seen other posts say to use a Full vs partial copy but I am not sure that is something that Cdata sync does. Is there a way go get beyond this error in cdata or salesforce?

DBAMP Patches and Hotfix Plans

Is there a patch / hotfix official release schedule for DBAMP? There must be some fixes since the official V2022 release. I did get some Hotfix patches but was wondering if I am to expect an official 2023 or 2022.1 release. I currently have to restart the windows service each night to prevent crashes.

How to update columns for SSIS oData source

We are a new CData user, connecting Acumatica oData as the source to SQL Server OLE DB destination. It works great for the initial configuration of the data flow, but we often change the underlying Acumatica query (i.e. add columns). I can’t seem to find a way to refresh the available columns in the CDdata Acumatica Source Editor screen. If I click the preview button, the new columns appear there correctly with data, but how are the columns added to the Columns node of the Editor screen? Along those lines, is there a way to refresh the list of available Generic Inquiries for new oData sources? The first time you log into Visual Studio the list of available inquiries refreshes, but after that I have to just use the Advanced Editor and hand-write the name of the query. Thanks for any feedback!

Using the QuickBooks driver with the QuickBooks Gateway

The QuickBooks Gateway (formerly Remote Connector) is useful if you want to access QuickBooks in a situation where direct COM access to QuickBooks is not available, such as in ASP.NET, Java, or QuickBooks on a remote machine.To authenticate to the QuickBooks company file, you will first need to create a user in the QuickBooks Gateway. Upon pressing Test Connection on that user, a prompt will open and ask you to authenticate it to QuickBooks. Note that QuickBooks must be open as an administrator in single-user mode for this to succeed.Then, you will need to open the QuickBooks DSN/Connection Manager/Connection String Builder and, in the Remote section, enter the information on the QuickBooks Gateway user you just created. The User and Password will be the username and password of your QuickBooks Gateway user, and the URL will be the URL of the QuickBooks Gateway. Note that the Company File property can be left blank, as the QuickBooks Gateway has already specified which company file to

I am unable to bind my server on port XXXX (which was previously used for the embedded web server) on Windows

One issue that comes up infrequently but can be inscrutable to troubleshoot is a situation where you are unable to start the web server hosting CData Arc on a port that you have previously used for the embedded web server provided with the application. For the purposes of this thread, we will refer to port 8001 here, since this is the default port assigned to the embedded web server distributed with CData Arc. Most commonly, issues with binding to a specific port are due to an existing process that is already listening on that port, but you may find that even after you run a check for ports in the listening statenetstat -a You do not see anything listening on that port. One possibility is that the URL for the port you are selecting has already been reserved on the system and cannot be assigned to another server. To check for this, run: netsh http show urlacl This will list all of the reserved entries on the machine. If the URL that you are trying to bind shows up like this: Reserved U

Excel add-in for Zoho Books: How to select all “BillLineItems”

Hi!I’m using the Excel add-in to connect to Zoho Books. I would like to get all “BillLineItems” from Zoho. The BillLineItems is a standard view or table.It is not possible to use the SELECT * command in order to retrieve all lineitems. It is required to a specify a BillID (key) number in order to get the data for that specific bill from this table (as I understand).Maybe it is my lack of knowledge of SQL. Do you have any suggestions how to get all BillLineitems? Thanks in advanve for your response.Regards,Marc

CData Arc Quick Tip of the Quarter: Using the Arc Vault

This quarter’s quick tip centers around the Arc Vault, a feature that enables storing and referencing values for simpler and more secure configuration.Why Use ItHere are a few cases in which the Vault is helpful:Save time when using the same configuration values in multiple connectors Protect sensitive values from limited-permissions users Simplify the process of updating passwords or identifiers across all workflowsHow It WorksThe Arc Vault allows you to give certain configuration values a “name” so that you can refer to these values by name instead of by the value itself.For example, if my SFTP server password is “test123,” I can use the Arc Vault to give this value a name like “mySFTPPassword.” Then, when configuring SFTP connectors, I can use “mySFTPPassword” instead of the password value itself in the connector’s configuration.The vault stores the relationship between the name (“mySFTPPassword”) and the value (“test123”) so that either can be used within Arc. Sensitive values can

Custom Signature Authentication in the Webhook Connector

OverviewSometimes, a requirement arises where you may need to receive data from a trading partner via the Webhook connector but that partner might require a bit more security other than just the basic auth username/password that is used to authenticate inbound webhook requests - or maybe you just want to add an additional layer of security on inbound webhook messages.Using the custom response feature of the webhook connector, you can actually create your own HTTP signature authentication logic to perform some additional authentication on inbound webhook requests, via the use of an HMAC signature value assigned to a header on the request.GitHub has a good writeup about this, and this is what has been used to make the below example within CData Arc - https://docs.github.com/en/webhooks-and-events/webhooks/securing-your-webhooksThe ScriptThis script is one that I wrote within the Response event of the Webhook Connector attached to this post:<!-- setting the secret key value to be avail

Connector Backoff Behavior in CData Arc

In CData Arc 2022, a new feature was added to the application which has been coined “backoff”. You may or may not have seen this mentioned in the application log of your instance, but if you haven’t, an entry in the application log would look something like this:~/AutomationService Warning The [ConnectorID] connector has failed more than 3 times and has entered a backoff state. The automation service will skip this connector until [date/time]. The connector will remain in the backoff state until a message is successfully sent manually, the connector settings change, or all messages are sent successfully during an automated send attempt.This is a feature where the automation for the connector will be temporarily paused if the connector fails to send a file successfully with automation three times in a row. If this happens, a 60 minute delay will be added to the automation of that connector before the connector will try to send any files via automation again. If the connector fails
