Retrieve Labor Cost Rate via REST API

Hi @RohitRattan88 ,

Thank you for the response.

Does the parameter $skip and $top work with this?

When trying to make a call to this endpoint, it does not limit the number of rows being shown as a response.

@RohitRattan88 My client is trying to write back to the Labor Rate screen in Acumatica via the API using Celigo. We are running into the issue where it is not inserting a new record but only updating the current line there for the particular Employee-Labor Items-Effective Date. Is there a trick to get it to always insert new record instead of overriding? 

@RohitRattan88 I am @cshaheen26 client. Appreciate the insight on this, it helped us realize we were structuring our call a little wrong. So I reformatted the json to the format you gave as an example and was able to get it to add a row when a row already exists. However this caused another little issue. In this record set we can have three scenarios:

1. No existing Labor Rate exists
2. A existing Labor Rate record exists with a different Effective Date
3. An existing Labor Rate record exists with same Effective Date but a different rate. I think in this scenario we would want to modify the existing record, in fact if we try to add a record (in GUI) it will tell us the effective date already exists.

In scenario 1&2 we want to add a new record, which thanks to you we can now do. But now I cannot get it to modify the existing record (scenario 3). Here is a postman example of what I am sending:

Here is the error I am getting back:

Any thoughts on how to get this to work? We are using Celigo Integrator.io to run these commands if that matters. Thanks!

@RohitRattan88 Yep, I figured that out this morning and got it to update in Postman, but Celigo is still throwing that error. Pulling my hair out trying to figure out the differences.

FYI, I actually had to add the “note”: ”value”: “” object to get it to take the entry along with the recordID

Thanks for the help!
