[Extensibility Enhancement] Access to CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseLine / CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseHeader / CreatePurchaseLines

[dsarfraz]

Why do you need this change?

To enable automatic assignment of incoming purchase invoices to vendor contracts (e. g. by using Continia Document Capture), the corresponding functions from Subscription Billing need to be accessible externally. Currently, these functions are not available outside Subscription Billing which prevents automation.

Describe the request

The following functions from CU 8062 "Billing Proposal" need to be externally callable:

CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseLine
CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseHeader
CreatePurchaseLines
Internal work item: AB#622411

Implementation:

In codeunit 8062 "Billing Proposal" (BillingProposal.Codeunit.al), remove the internal keyword from all three procedures to promote them from app-internal to publicly accessible.

Current code:

internal procedure CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseHeader(ServicePartner: Enum "Service Partner"; var TempServiceCommitment: Record "Subscription Line" temporary; BillingDate: Date; BillingToDate: Date)

internal procedure CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseLine(ServicePartner: Enum "Service Partner"; var TempServiceCommitment: Record "Subscription Line" temporary; BillingDate: Date; BillingToDate: Date; var PurchaseLine: Record "Purchase Line")

internal procedure CreatePurchaseLines(PurchaseHeader: Record "Purchase Header")

Proposed change:

procedure CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseHeader(ServicePartner: Enum "Service Partner"; var TempServiceCommitment: Record "Subscription Line" temporary; BillingDate: Date; BillingToDate: Date)

procedure CreateBillingProposalForPurchaseLine(ServicePartner: Enum "Service Partner"; var TempServiceCommitment: Record "Subscription Line" temporary; BillingDate: Date; BillingToDate: Date; var PurchaseLine: Record "Purchase Line")

procedure CreatePurchaseLines(PurchaseHeader: Record "Purchase Header")
