How to remove an invalid sales order item quantity
Hi,
I'm adding some custom data to imported sales orders, which most of the times work. But sometimes the previously imported data fails constraints.
For example, I have item lines that are Discounts and do not allow quantities, but had quantity 1 assigned during the import.
I am not able to update these records through Web Services (C#) because I get the error "quantity not allowed".
If I set the invoice.itemList.item[itemIndex].quantitySpecified = false,
the already imported bad data blocks the changes that I am trying to make.
If I provide a quantity, I get the same error.
Trying to set the quantity to null will not compile (quantity is numeric).
