Netsuite namespace conflict (core_2017_2.platform vs accounting_2017_2.lists)

问题

I want to post a journal entry to Netsuite from my Python script. I am using zeep to talk to SuiteTalk.

I am new to Netsuite and I am new to SOAP. Following on internet examples, I managed to add a test customer via Python script using the below code:

def make_app_info(client):
    AppInfo = client.get_type('ns4:ApplicationInfo')
    app_info = AppInfo(applicationId=NS_APPID)
    return app_info


def make_passport(client):
    RecordRef = client.get_type('ns0:RecordRef')
    Passport = client.get_type('ns0:Passport')
    role = RecordRef(internalId=NS_ROLE)

    return Passport(email=NS_EMAIL,
                    password=NS_PASSWORD,
                    account=NS_ACCOUNT,
                    role=role)


def login_client():
    client = Client(WSDL_URL)
    login = client.service.login(passport=make_passport(client), _soapheaders={'applicationInfo': make_app_info(client)})
    return client

The WSDL_URL I am using is https://webservices.netsuite.com/wsdl/v2017_2_0/netsuite.wsdl

Using the above client the below code adds the customer:

def add_customer():
    client = login_client()

    Customer = client.get_type('ns13:Customer')
    customer = Customer(
        lastName='Prasad',
        firstName='Vikas',
        email='vikasprasad@example.com',
        companyName='Test Company'
    )

    client.service.add(customer)

add_customer()

The above adds the Customer successfully to the Netsuite account and I can see it in the list on the webapp. Continuing on the above example, I wrote this code to add JournalEntry:

def get_record_by_type(client, type, internal_id):
    RecordRef = client.get_type('ns0:RecordRef')

    record = RecordRef(internalId=internal_id, type=type)
    response = client.service.get(record,
        _soapheaders={
            'applicationInfo': make_app_info(client),
            'passport': make_passport(client),
        }
    )
    r = response.body.readResponse
    if r.status.isSuccess:
        return r.record

def add_journal_entry():
    client = login_client()

    # get subsidiary by internal id
    subsidiary = get_record_by_type(client, 'subsidiary', '1')
    print(subsidiary)    # This prints a valid subsidiary having internal id 1

    # create two journal entry lines
    JournalEntryLine = client.get_type('ns31:JournalEntryLine')
    credit_line = JournalEntryLine(account=get_record_by_type(client, 'account', '1'), credit=100)
    debit_line = JournalEntryLine(account=get_record_by_type(client, 'account', '2'), debit=100)
    print(credit_line)    # This prints credit_line with a valid account having internal id 1
    print(debit_line)    # This prints debit_line with a valid account having internal id 2

    JournalEntryLineList = client.get_type('ns31:JournalEntryLineList')
    journal_entry_line_list = JournalEntryLineList(line=[credit_line, debit_line])

    JournalEntry = client.get_type('ns31:JournalEntry')
    journal_entry = JournalEntry(subsidiary=subsidiary, lineList=journal_entry_line_list)

    client.service.add(journal_entry, _soapheaders={'passport': make_passport(client),
                   'applicationInfo': make_app_info(client)})  # Fails on this line.

add_journal_entry()

This fails on the call client.service.add(...) with the error:

zeep.exceptions.Fault: org.xml.sax.SAXException: Expected {urn:core_2017_2.platform.webservices.netsuite.com}name, found {urn:accounting_2017_2.lists.webservices.netsuite.com}name

I am sure this is something silly in the world of SOAP, but I am not sure which direction to debug into. Why is there a difference between the expected and the found one? I have nowhere mentioned any specific namespaces. Its just WSDL v2017_2_0 and all the client.get_type() call are made on top of this. Where is this error coming from?

Have asked the same question at Netsuite user group: https://usergroup.netsuite.com/users/forum/platform-areas/web-services-suitetalk/434717-netsuite-namespace-conflict#post434717

UPDATE: Based on @Justin W's answer it turns out, that instead of fetching the subsidiary and accounts by their internalId from Suitetalk and then adding them in the request, I can directly tell Suitetalk the type and the internalId using a RecordRef and Suitetalk will understand what subsidiary and accounts to use.

i.e. subsidiary = get_record_by_type(client, 'subsidiary', '1') can be changed to subsidiary = RecordRef(internalId='1', type='subsidiary')

Similarly

credit_line = JournalEntryLine(account=get_record_by_type(client, 'account', '1'), credit=100)
debit_line = JournalEntryLine(account=get_record_by_type(client, 'account', '2'), debit=100)

can be changed to

credit_line = JournalEntryLine(account=RecordRef(internalId='1', type='account'), credit=100)
debit_line = JournalEntryLine(account=RecordRef(internalId='2', type='account'), debit=100)

回答1:

I think it's probably that your get_account() returns an Account but JournalEntryLine.account is supposed to be a RecordRef (actually, the same problem for get_subsidiary() as well)
