	Retrieves the main MCD object reference parameters
 The invoice and MCD object references form an object reference chain (invoice -> mcd) with the MCD as topmost object reference. The page "object reference" provides an in-depth description of the concepts of "object reference", "object reference chain", and "topmost object reference".  |

| [out] BSTR | *pbstrRequestMCDID | The request ID is the main software's identification of the MCD ("MCD Fallnummer"). 
 This is one of 3 identifiers that form the MCD object reference. This ID must be identical for the same MCD object reference e.g. in a storno process!  | 
	|
| [out] DATE | *pdRequestMCDDate | The request date is the main software's date of the MCD request ("MCD Datum") 
 This is one of 3 identifiers that form the MCD object reference. This date must be identical for the same MCD object reference e.g. in a storno process!  | 
	|
| [out] long | *plRequestMCDTimestamp | This is a UNIX timestamp defined at the moment of the MCD's infoset generation.
 This is one of 3 identifiers that form the MCD object reference. The timestamp will be generated once for a certain MCD object reference and thereafter always referenced!  |

| [out, retval] VARIANT_BOOL | *pbStatus | Return status of the method. If pbStatus is VARIANT_FALSE then an error occurred and GetAbortInfo should be called to retrieve the error string. | |
| S_OK | This value is returned if the function call was successful or if the return value of a boolean method signalling a true value. In this case the VARIANT_BOOL is set to VARIANT_TRUE. | ||
| S_FALSE | This is the return value of a boolean method signalling a false return value. In this case the VARIANT_BOOL is set to VARIANT_FALSE. | ||
| E_name | This value is returned if the function call was unsuccessful and an error exception was generated. Note that if you are using SmartPointers an exception is thrown under these conditions. | ||
