How to transfer payment line into Sage 50?

I'm using sagecrmErp2008feeds to the integration with my application. I'm able to create SalesCredit and SalesInvoice data. But I would like to transfer payment data from my application to Sage50.
Which feed Entry should I use for that for payment transfer ? Please see my Invoice code example. I would like to use the same way to transfer payment but I'm not getting feedentry for that. Here I'm using salesInvoiceFeedEntry feed entry.
public IResult<string> CreateSalesInvoice(Sage50Transaction data)
{
var result = new Result<string>();
try
{
var tradingAccount = GetCustomer(data.CustomerGuid);
if (tradingAccount == null)
{
throw new Exception("Customer not found in Sage");
}
var salesInvoice = new salesInvoiceFeedEntry
{
tradingAccount = tradingAccount
};
salesInvoice.reference = data.ReferenceId;
salesInvoice.reference2 = data.OurRef;
salesInvoice.customerReference = data.YourRef;
salesInvoice.netTotal = data.NetSub;
salesInvoice.taxDate = data.TransactionDate;
salesInvoice.date = data.TransactionDate;
salesInvoice.salesInvoiceLines = new salesInvoiceLineFeed();
if (data.Lines != null)
{
foreach (var item in data.Lines)
{
salesInvoice.salesInvoiceLines.Entries.Add(GetInvoiceLineItem(item));
}
}
var invoiceRequest = new SDataRequest(uri.Uri, salesInvoice, Sage.Integration.Messaging.Model.RequestVerb.POST);
invoiceRequest.Username = Username;
invoiceRequest.Password = Password;
salesInvoiceFeedEntry savedSalesInvoice = new salesInvoiceFeedEntry();
invoiceRequest.RequestFeedEntry<salesInvoiceFeedEntry>(savedSalesInvoice);
result.Data = savedSalesInvoice.UUID.ToString();
result.HasData = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(result.Data);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
result.HasData = false;
result.Data = null;
result.Error = ex;
result.FailMessage = ex.Message;
}
return result;
}

As per my understanding, "payment transfer" is not possible from 3rd party to sage50, as the Sage 50 Accounts does not support this.

API is mixing up data from different devices

I have an API that has devices firing data to it at the same time or within a few milliseconds. What I am finding is that the data is getting mixed up. The data is sent every five minutes (on the clock 05, 10, 15 etc.) I have an execution filter that traps the URL data coming in so I always have a real source, then it goes to the endpoint and then onto processing. For example, there will a be random five minute period missing. When I debug step by step with the missing URL from the execution filter it works fine. By that I mean I take the URL and debug, then it inserts.
In summary, I have device id 1 and device id 2.I will get missing intervals even though, I can see the data has hit the execution filter.
I am assuming that the API is not handling these as separate transactions, but somehow mixing them up together, hence the data missing and the serial numbers appearing in the wrong place, such that data from id 1 is appearing in id 2 vice versa etc.
API End Point:
public class SomeController : ApiController
{
[HttpGet]
[ExecutionFilter]
public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Get([FromUri] FixedDataModel fdm)

var reply = new HttpResponseMessage();
string url = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString.ToString());

reply = TimeSyncValidation.TimeSync;

You are using global variables and static method to process your data.
Change your method to non-static.
Each DeviceClass worker must update only its own isolated data then push that off back to controller.

How to get Bitcoin value for corresponding USD value in ASP.NET C#?

I want to get Bitcoin value for corresponding USD value and store it in table or variable. I got this URL from which I can get a Bitcoin value for USK amount. I searched on blockchain and I found this URL.
For example:
500usd = 0.76105818 btc
I tried:
https://blockchain.info/tobtc?currency=USD&value=500
at the end, its USD value which we want to convert in Bitcoin.
I want to get the result in the variable in C# (backend).
How can I accomplish this?

You need to just make call to server and parse the response.
var uri = String.Format("https://blockchain.info/tobtc?currency=USD&value={0}", 500);
WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
var data = client.DownloadString(uri);
var result = Convert.ToDouble(data);

Install-Package CoinMarketCapClient
using CoinMarketCap;
public static async Task<double> GetBitcoinInUsd(double usd){
//https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/bitcoin/
CoinMarketCapClient client = CoinMarketCapClient.GetInstance();
var entity = await client.GetTickerAsync("bitcoin");
return entity.PriceUsd * usd;
}

var uri = String.Format(#"https://blockchain.info/tobtc?currency=USD&value={0}",1);
WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
var data = client.DownloadString(uri);
var result = 1/Convert.ToDouble(data.Replace('.',',')); //you will receive 1 btc = result;

There are several APIs out there that will allow you to request the prices for a list of crypto currencies, and/or fiat currencies. The problem is that all the APIs do it in a disparate way. The follow on from that is that any one could be down at any given time, so you need to have some failure tolerance built in. I.e. the code should attempt to use one API, and if that fails, move to the next. Of course, this is further complicated by the fact that price is subjective and localised to a given country, exchange and so on. So, getting an accurate value is very difficult.
Here is example Crypto Compare client from CryptoCurrency.Net (https://github.com/MelbourneDeveloper/CryptoCurrency.Net/blob/master/src/CryptoCurrency.Net/APIClients/PriceEstimationClients/CryptoCompareClient.cs):
public class CryptoCompareClient : PriceEstimationClientBase, IPriceEstimationClient
{
public CryptoCompareClient(IRestClientFactory restClientFactory) : base(restClientFactory)
{
RESTClient = restClientFactory.CreateRESTClient(new Uri("https://min-api.cryptocompare.com"));
}
protected override Func<GetPricesArgs, Task<EstimatedPricesModel>> GetPricesFunc { get; } = async a =>
{
var retVal = new EstimatedPricesModel();
if (a.Currencies.ToList().Count == 0)
{
return retVal;
}
retVal.LastUpdate = DateTime.Now;
var symbolsPart = string.Join(",", a.Currencies.Select(c => c.Name));
var priceJson = await a.RESTClient.GetAsync<string>($"data/pricemultifull?fsyms={symbolsPart}&tsyms={a.FiatCurrency}");
var jObject = (JObject)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(priceJson);
var rawNode = (JObject)jObject.First.First;
foreach (JProperty coinNode in rawNode.Children())
{
var fiatNode = (JProperty)coinNode.First().First;
var allProperties = fiatNode.First.Children().Cast<JProperty>().ToList();
var change24HourProperty = allProperties.FirstOrDefault(p => string.Compare(p.Name, "CHANGEPCT24HOUR", true) == 0);
var priceProperty = allProperties.FirstOrDefault(p => string.Compare(p.Name, "PRICE", true) == 0);
var price = (decimal)priceProperty.Value;
var change24Hour = (decimal)change24HourProperty.Value;
retVal.Result.Add(new CoinEstimate { CurrencySymbol = new CurrencySymbol(coinNode.Name), ChangePercentage24Hour = change24Hour, FiatEstimate = price, LastUpdate = DateTime.Now });
}
//Extreme hack. It's better to show zero than nothing at all and get the coins stuck
foreach (var currency in a.Currencies)
{
if (retVal.Result.FirstOrDefault(ce => ce.CurrencySymbol.Equals(currency)) == null)
{
retVal.Result.Add(new CoinEstimate { ChangePercentage24Hour = 0, CurrencySymbol = currency, FiatEstimate = 0, LastUpdate = DateTime.Now });
}
}
return retVal;
};
}
The PriceEstimationManager will flick through APIs until it finds one that works (https://github.com/MelbourneDeveloper/CryptoCurrency.Net/blob/master/src/CryptoCurrency.Net/APIClients/PriceEstimationClients/PriceEstimationManager.cs):
public class PriceEstimationManager
{
#region Fields
private readonly Collection<IPriceEstimationClient> _Clients = new Collection<IPriceEstimationClient>();
#endregion
#region Constructor
public PriceEstimationManager(IRestClientFactory restClientFactory)
{
foreach (var typeInfo in typeof(PriceEstimationManager).GetTypeInfo().Assembly.DefinedTypes)
{
var type = typeInfo.AsType();
if (typeInfo.ImplementedInterfaces.Contains(typeof(IPriceEstimationClient)))
{
_Clients.Add((IPriceEstimationClient)Activator.CreateInstance(type, restClientFactory));
}
}
}
#endregion
#region Public Methods
/// <summary>
/// TODO: This needs to be averaged. The two current clients give wildly different values. Need to include some Australian exchanges etc.
/// </summary>
public async Task<EstimatedPricesModel> GetPrices(IEnumerable<CurrencySymbol> currencySymbols, string fiatCurrency)
{
//Lets try a client that hasn't been used before if there is one
var client = _Clients.FirstOrDefault(c => c.AverageCallTimespan.TotalMilliseconds == 0);
var currencies = currencySymbols.ToList();
if (client != null)
{
try
{
return await client.GetPrices(currencies, fiatCurrency);
}
catch
{
//Do nothing
}
}
foreach (var client2 in _Clients.OrderBy(c => c.SuccessRate).ThenBy(c => c.AverageCallTimespan).ToList())
{
try
{
return await client2.GetPrices(currencies, fiatCurrency);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.Log("Error Getting Prices", ex, nameof(PriceEstimationManager));
}
}
throw new Exception("Can't get prices");
}
#endregion
}
At a higher level, you can use the code like this (https://github.com/MelbourneDeveloper/CryptoCurrency.Net/blob/master/src/CryptoCurrency.Net.UnitTests/PricingTests.cs):
public async Task GetUSDBitcoinPrice()
{
var priceEstimationManager = new PriceEstimationManager(new RESTClientFactory());
var estimatedPrice = await priceEstimationManager.GetPrices(new List<CurrencySymbol> { CurrencySymbol.Bitcoin }, "USD");
Console.WriteLine($"Estimate: {estimatedPrice.Result.First().FiatEstimate}");
}
As more pricing clients are added, it will get more and more reliable.

Salesforce SOAP create record

I have the following code to insert a record (I will be inserting 1000's). I get a successful insert but all of the numeric fields are EMPTY in salesforce. The one text field works fine ("Church of Randy") and appears in salesforce. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
public void InsertTestRecord()
{
ChurchHist__c ch = new ChurchHist__c();
ch.ChurchId__c = 9999;
ch.ChurchName__c = "Church of Randy";
ch.ReportYear__c = 2013;
ch.ReportMonth__c = 08;
ch.RegisteredMembers__c = 777;
ch.ActiveMembers__c = 111;
ch.InactiveMembers__c = 666;
ch.UsersForMonth__c = 25;
ch.ContribForMonth__c = 789.01;
ch.ContribYTD__c = 200000.02;
ch.AchContrib__c = 200000.00;
ch.CcContrib__c = 0.02;
ch.AchToCc__c = 0.12345;
sObject[] s = new sObject[1];
s[0] = ch;
try
{
SaveResult[] saveResult = binding.create(s);
if (saveResult[0].success)
{
Debug.Print("Success");
}
else
{
foreach (Error error in saveResult[0].errors)
{
Debug.Print(error.statusCode.ToString());
Debug.Print(error.message);
}
}
}
catch (SoapException se)
{
Debug.Print(se.ToString());
}
}

You need to set the specified flags, e.g. numeric property has an associated specified flag that controls if the .NET soap engine will actually send that property over the wire, unfortuantly the setter for the property does not automatically set the specified flag. e.g.
ch.ChurchId__c = 9999;
ch.ChurchId__cSpecified = true;
ch.reportyear__c = 2013;
ch.reportyear__cSpecified = true;
The specified flags are a "feature" of the .NET soap system for certain types. (numbers & dates IIRC).

password data not appear in edit mode

i have a problem
in edit mode i bring user data and all data come normally
then i add that data to text fields on the page and that also work well
I'm sure from that as i see it in debug mode
but when the page come to the browser the password field is empty although i put the data on it
can any one tell me where is the problem ???
that is the code
method get data from data base
public AdminsContianer getContainer(int adminId)
{
using (Naqqab context = new Naqqab())
{
IQueryable<user> admin = getContainer_compiledQuery2.Invoke(context, adminId);
if (admin.Count() > 0)
{
var add = admin.FirstOrDefault();
if (add != null)
{
var rc = new AdminsContianer();
rc.FirstName = add.user_firstname;
rc.adminCreationdate = (DateTime)add.user_creationdate;
rc.LastName = add.user_lastname;
rc.Username = add.user_username;
rc.Password = add.user_password;
rc.adminLuState = add.user_lu_status.ToString();
rc.adminLuType = add.user_lu_type.ToString();
rc.adminLevel = add.admin_level.ToString();
rc.adminId = add.user_id;
return rc;
}
else
{
return null;
}
}
else
{
return null;
}
}
}
method put data in text fields
public void FillFormFields(AdminsContianer ad)
{
HiddenAdminID.Value = AdminIdToEdit;
registerAdminUsername.Text = ad.Username;
registerAdminLastname.Text = ad.LastName;
registerAdminFirstname.Text = ad.FirstName;
registerAdminPassword.Text = ad.Password;
registerAdminCPassword.Text = ad.Password;
adminLevelDropDownList.SelectedValue = ad.adminLevel.ToString();
//userTypeDropDownList.SelectedValue = ad.adminLuType.ToString();
registerAdminState.SelectedValue = ad.adminLuState.ToString();
}
thanks in advance

Use the following code to set value in password textbox registerAdminPasswod.Attributes.Add("value", ad.Password);

Why would you like to show the password because it can't be understand by the user.
Here is a solution its a code project link which has the solution
or
txt1.Text = "sample_password";
if (txt1.TextMode == TextBoxMode.Password)
{
txt1.Attributes.Add("value", txt1.Text);
}
