Is it possible to update a Service Call to add expense and labor lines via Econnect or Web Services? If so, can anyone point me to an example?
I have Web Services installed, and the service is working (created an employee following the example in the docs. Below is stack trace output and the code that is failing with an 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object. exception.' Sorry for the mess!
