How the create a partner

A partner in Xena can be used as a creditor, debtor and/or employee. The idea behind this is to avoid duplicate data and to give our customers a better overview of all of their business with a specific partner. If a partner is a creditor, it will have a customer context connected. If a partner is a debtor, it will have a supplier context connected. A partner can have more than one context. When you make a lookup on a specific partner, you will get info about the contexts associated.

GET https://my.xena.biz/Api/Fiscal/{fiscalId}/Partner/{partnerId}
{
	...
	"SupplierId": {Supplier context id},
	"CustomerId": {customer context id},
	"ResourceId": {resource context id},
	...
}

This is important to understand when you create a new partner. If you use the default endpoint, the partner will be created without any contexts.

There are two ways to creating a partner. The first method requires two API calls. The second method can only create a customer or supplier but only requires one API call.

Create a partner without any context

POST https://my.xena.biz/Api/Fiscal/{fiscalId}/Partner

Articles/lines are not added directly to the order but to an order task. One order can have several order tasks. The next step is to get the tasks and add articles to them.

Get order tasks

GET https://my.xena.biz/Api/Fiscal/{fiscalId}/Order/{orderId}/OrderTask?ForceNoPaging=true&Page=0&PageSize=100&ShowDeactivated=false

First you need to find the order task that you want to add the article to. If CreateTask was true when you created the order then the order will have one task already. To find the Id of that order task you need to get the list of order tasks. You will get a PagedResultSet with a list of OrderTaskDTO in Entities property from the endpoint.
