Error Converting Request to Purchase Order–Business Portal 5.1

 

I have installed Business Portal 5.1 for one of my customers and been through the below error in converting Purchase Request into Purchase Order

The specified Protocol is invalid

Doing researches about this subject returned that the web.config of the business portal might be missing from this path “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics\Business Portal” and it was!

To resolve this I have connected to another client whose running the business portal with no issues and copied the web.config! It worked perfectly, below is the web.config content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>

    <system.web>

        <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy" />

    </system.web>

    
    <appSettings>

    <add key="Protocol" value="1"/>
    <add key="TaxEngineServiceAssembly0" value="Microsoft.Business.Taxes.Services"/>
    <add key="TaxEngineServiceClass0" value="Microsoft.Business.Taxes.TaxEngine"/>

    <add key="TaxEngineDataServiceAssembly0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics"/>
    <add key="TaxEngineDataServiceClass0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics.Common.TaxEngineData"/>

    <add key="TaxEnginePreCalculateDocumentEventAssembly0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics"/>
    <add key="TaxEnginePreCalculateDocumentEventClass0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics.Common.TaxEngineISV"/>
    <add key="TaxEnginePreCalculateDocumentEventMethod0" value="DocumentPre"/>
    
    <add key="TaxEnginePreGetTaxGroupIDsEventAssembly0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics"/>
    <add key="TaxEnginePreGetTaxGroupIDsEventClass0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics.Common.TaxEngineISV"/>
    <add key="TaxEnginePreGetTaxGroupIDsEventMethod0" value="PreGetTaxGroupIDs"/>

    <add key="TaxEnginePreCalculateCodeEventAssembly0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics"/>
    <add key="TaxEnginePreCalculateCodeEventClass0" value="Microsoft.Dynamics.Common.TaxEngineISV"/>
    <add key="TaxEnginePreCalculateCodeEventMethod0" value="PreCalculateCode"/>

    </appSettings>

</configuration>
