Interface JournalEntryAdminSession

All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

All Known Subinterfaces:

JournalEntryBatchAdminSession

public interface JournalEntryAdminSession
extends OsidSession

This session creates, updates, and deletes JournalEntries . The data for create and update is provided by the consumer via the form object. OsidForms are requested for each create or update and may not be reused.

Create and update operations differ in their usage. To create a JournalEntry , a JournalEntryForm is requested using getJournalEntryFormForCreate() specifying the desired record Types or none if no record Types are needed. The returned JournalEntryForm will indicate that it is to be used with a create operation and can be used to examine metdata or validate data prior to creation. Once the JournalEntryForm is submiited to a create operation, it cannot be reused with another create operation unless the first operation was unsuccessful. Each JournalEntryForm corresponds to an attempted transaction.

For updates, JournalEntryForms are requested to the JournalEntry Id that is to be updated using getJournalEntryFormForUpdate() . Similarly, the JournalEntryForm has metadata about the data that can be updated and it can perform validation before submitting the update. The JournalEntryForm can only be used once for a successful update and cannot be reused.

The delete operations delete JournalEntries .

This session includes an Id aliasing mechanism to assign an external Id to an internally assigned Id.

Method Details

getJournalId

Id getJournalId()

Gets the Journal Id associated with this session.

Returns:

the Journal Id associated with this session

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getJournal

Journal getJournal()
            throws OperationFailedException,
PermissionDeniedException

Gets the Journal associated with this session.

Returns:

the journal

Throws:

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

canCreateJournalEntries

boolean canCreateJournalEntries()

Tests if this user can create journal entries. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known creating a JournalEntry will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED . This is intended as a hint to an application that may not wish to offer create operations to unauthorized users.

Returns:

false if JournalEntry creation is not authorized, true otherwise

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

canCreateJournalEntryWithRecordTypes

boolean canCreateJournalEntryWithRecordTypes(Type[] journalEntryRecordTypes)

Tests if this user can create a single JournalEntry using the desired record interface types. While JournalingManager.getJournalEntryRecordTypes() can be used to examine which record interfaces are supported, this method tests which record(s) are required for creating a specific JournalEntry . Providing an empty array tests if a JournalEntry can be created with no records.

Parameters:

journalEntryRecordTypes - array of journal entry record types

Returns:

true if JournalEntry creation using the specified record Types is supported, false otherwise

Throws:

NullArgumentException - journalEntryRecordTypes is null

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getJournalEntryFormForCreate

JournalEntryForm getJournalEntryFormForCreate(Id branchId,
 Id sourceId,
 Type[] journalEntryRecordTypes)
                                       throws NotFoundException,
OperationFailedException,
PermissionDeniedException

Gets the journal entry form for creating new entries. A new form should be requested for each create transaction.

Parameters:

branchId - the Id for the branch

sourceId - the Id for the journaled object

journalEntryRecordTypes - array of journal entry record types

Returns:

the journal entry form

Throws:

NotFoundException - branchId is not found

NullArgumentException - branchId, sourceId , or journalEntryRecordTypes is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

UnsupportedException - unable to get form for requested record types
