Overview
This node interacts with the SAP Business One Service Layer (version 8) to manage various production-related resources, including Inventory Gen Exit documents. Specifically, the "Save Draft to Document" operation for the "Inventory Gen Exit" resource allows users to convert a draft version of an inventory exit document into a finalized document within SAP B1.
Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating inventory management workflows, such as finalizing draft inventory exit records after review or approval processes. For example, a user might create multiple draft inventory exit documents during stocktaking and then use this node to save those drafts as official documents in SAP B1, ensuring accurate inventory tracking and compliance.
Properties

Output
The node outputs a JSON object representing the response from the SAP B1 Service Layer API after attempting to save the draft document. This typically includes details about the saved document, such as its new status, identifiers, and any metadata returned by SAP.
If an error occurs, the output JSON will contain an error field with the error message describing what went wrong.
No binary data output is produced by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires connection to an SAP Business One Service Layer instance (version 8).
- Needs credentials including:
- Base URL of the SAP B1 Service Layer.
- Username and password for authentication.
- Company database name.
- The node performs a login request to obtain session cookies used for subsequent API calls.
- The environment must allow HTTP requests to the SAP B1 Service Layer endpoint.
Troubleshooting
- Authentication failures: If login fails, verify that the base URL, username, password, and company database are correct and that the SAP B1 Service Layer is accessible.
- Invalid DocEntry: Errors may occur if the provided
DocEntrydoes not correspond to an existing draft document or if it is already finalized. - Network issues: Ensure network connectivity to the SAP B1 Service Layer server and that SSL certificates are valid or properly handled (the node disables strict SSL verification).
- API errors: The node returns error messages from the SAP API; these should be reviewed to understand issues like permission problems or invalid operations.
- Empty or malformed JSON Body: Although not used in this operation, other operations require a valid JSON body; ensure JSON syntax correctness when applicable.
