Updates a set of records. The updated array of records is passed
as a reference and is updated with the latest version.
 Note |
|
The UpdateMultiple operation attempts to update one field at a
time. This can cause errors if the updated value in one field
prevents another field's value from being valid. You can resolve
this by deleting and inserting lines instead of updating.

Faults
| SOAP fault message |
Description |
|
Other user has modified [record
name].
|
Indicates that another user or process has modified the record
after it has been retrieved for this update operation.
|
|
[record name] [field] [value]
does not exist.
|
Indicates that the record has been deleted by another user or
process after it has been retrieved for this update operation.
|
|
The [record name] already exists.
Identification fields and values: [field]=[value]
|
Indicates that the renaming of the record would violate key
constraints.
|
Other faults are possible if they are generated by the C/AL
code.
The UpdateMultiple operation is executed as a single transaction
unless the C/AL code explicitly commits the transaction. Either all
or none of the records are updated provided that the application
code does not explicitly call COMMIT.
Usage Example
The following example adds the string "Updated" to the name of
the first 100 customer names that start with S.
| C# |
 Copy Code |
List<Customer_Filter> filterArray = new List<Customer_Filter>();
Customer_Filter nameFilter = new Customer_Filter();
nameFilter.Field = Customer_Fields.Name;
nameFilter.Criteria = "S*";
filterArray.Add(nameFilter);
Customer[] custList = service.ReadMultiple(filterArray.ToArray(), null, 100);
for (int i = 0; i < custList.Length; i++)
{
custList [i].Name = custList [i].Name + " Updated";
}
service.Update(ref custList)
