Pass variable into global class

Hi,

i've got a invocable method,

global class passbillingid {
   @InvocableMethod
   public static List<String> getBillingIds(List<String> names) {
      List<Id> billingIds = new List<Id>();
      List<AcctSeed__Billing__c> billings = [SELECT Id FROM AcctSeed__Billing__c WHERE Name in :names];
      for (AcctSeed__Billing__c billing : billings) {
         billingIds.add(billing.Id);
      }
      return billingIds;
   }
}

I need to pass this variable into this global class "AcctSeed.BillingPostService.postBillings(billings)"

AcctSeed.PostResult[] postResults = AcctSeed.BillingPostService.postBillings(billings);

How can i do this inthe same invocable method?

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers,

Hi Sujay,
You can try something like this

global class passbillingid {
    
    public static void innerMethod(List<case> billings){
        AcctSeed.PostResult[] postResults = AcctSeed.BillingPostService.postBillings(billings);
    }
    
    @InvocableMethod
    public static List<id> getBillingIds(List<String> names) {
        List<Id> billingIds = new List<Id>();
        List<case> billings = [SELECT Id FROM case WHERE id in :names];
        for (case billing : billings) {
            billingIds.add(billing.Id);
        }
        innerMethod(billings);
        return billingIds;    
    }
}

Thanks
Ramesh

Thank you Ramesh for your answer.

I'm getting the following error:

Compile Error: Method does not exist or incorrect signature: void postBillings(List<String>) from the type AcctSeed.BillingPostService at line 4 column 73

 

For reference: 

// Create billing records to post and unpost
AcctSeed__Billing__c[] billings = new List <AcctSeed__Billing__c> ();
billings.add(
    new AcctSeed__Billing__c(
        AcctSeed__Billing_Cycle_Start_Date__c = System.today(),
        AcctSeed__Billing_Cycle_End_Date__c = System.today() + 30,
        AcctSeed__Date__c = System.today(),
        AcctSeed__Customer__c = [Select Id From Account limit 1].Id,
        AcctSeed__Status__c = 'Approved',
        AcctSeed__Due_Date2__c = System.today() + 30
    )
);

billings.add(
    new AcctSeed__Billing__c(
        AcctSeed__Billing_Cycle_Start_Date__c = System.today(),
        AcctSeed__Billing_Cycle_End_Date__c = System.today() + 30,
        AcctSeed__Date__c = System.today(),

        AcctSeed__Status__c = 'Approved',
        AcctSeed__Due_Date2__c = System.today() + 30
    )
);

insert billings;

AcctSeed__Billing_Line__c[] bLines = new List <AcctSeed__Billing_Line__c> ();
AcctSeed__GL_Account__c glAccount = [Select Id From AcctSeed__GL_Account__c limit 1];

for (AcctSeed__Billing__c bill : billings) {
    AcctSeed__Billing_Line__c objBillingLine = new AcctSeed__Billing_Line__c();
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Billing__c = bill.id;
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Date__c = System.today();
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Rate__c = 25;
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Hours_Units__c = 1;
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Revenue_GL_Account__c = glAccount.Id;
    bLines.add(objBillingLine);

    objBillingLine = new AcctSeed__Billing_Line__c();
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Billing__c = bill.id;
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Date__c = System.today();
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Rate__c = 25;
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Hours_Units__c = 2;
    objBillingLine.AcctSeed__Revenue_GL_Account__c = glAccount.Id;

}

insert bLines;

            System.debug('Error message ' + errorResult.message);
        }
    }
}

Hi Sujay,

you can pass paramter by instance of another class:-
  
InstantiateMeIfYouCan instance;
instance = new InstantiateMeIfYouCan(parameter);


if you fond this useful then, PLEASE MARK AS A BEST ANSWER!!

Hi Sujay,

Possible Solution:
1) If it's not an static method, make a constructor which accepts your parameter
or
2) Initialize the class and access your method.
or
3) Make sure you pass same type of parameter to the method

Thanks
Ramesh
