[Vtigercrm-developers] API

[Sukhdev Mohan]

1. Sure the sw knows what operation to call but there might be non synced data. Also This way you don’t have to implement logics across various platforms, so changes aren’t a hell.

2. I’ll test and let you know.

This would suggest that by not sending some LineItems that they would be removed. If they didn't get removed by doing this how else would you remove a LineItem from the record? (Although thinking about it LineItems are a separate module accessible via API, so you could perform a delete operation on an individual LineItem that way? Like I said havent tried it, but would be intrigued to know what happens when you test it out.
