LoseOpportunity Message

Sets the state of an opportunity to Lost.

  
//# The following code example shows how to use the LoseOpportunity message.
// Set up the CRM service.
CrmAuthenticationToken token = new CrmAuthenticationToken();
// You can use enums.cs from the SDK\Helpers folder to get the enumeration for Active Directory authentication.
token.AuthenticationType = 0; 
token.OrganizationName = "AdventureWorksCycle";

//Set up the data required for this sample.

// Create an account for the opportunity's potential customer.

// Be aware that using AllColumns may adversely affect
// performance and cause unwanted cascading in subsequent 
// updates. A best practice is to retrieve the least amount of 
// data required.

dollarRequest.Query = dollarQuery;

// Get US currency to use in the opportunity.
