In addition to what I mentioned above, you could also make another call to grab the rate of the items. You would have to make two separate calls,

1. Call to get the item rate.

2. Call to add the line item with that rate.

Then, you can use them on the InvoiceLineItems.

Hope this helps!

Hi smandolare,

Thank you for reaching out. After reviewing your request, I can confirm that you need to manually update the rate of the items in your request.

Unfortunately, at the moment we do not grab the rates from the “Items table”, so this would have to be done manually.

Hope this helps!

I too am having a similar problem with the InvoiceLine Item rate. Is there a way to create the InvoiceLine Item using the stored item rate without having to specify it in the request? If I create a Line with an Item and no rate, it is added to the Invoice as $0. How do I get the line added with the database stored rate?

{

"Customer": "Customer LLC",
"TxnDate": "2023-04-03T04:18:10",
"__InvoiceLine": [
{
"Item": "Item 1",
"Quantity": 205
},
{
"Item": "Item 2",
"Quantity": 59
}
]
}

Thanks

Some Questions and Issue in the API

First, When I create a new Invoice with InvoiceLine the Rate is set as 0.0 although I set a value on it !

this is the body request:

{

"TxnDate": "2020-11-12T16:00:00",

"BillAddressAddr1": "Address1",

"BillAddressAddr2": "Address2",

"BillAddressCity": "City",

"BillAddressState": "State",

"BillAddressPostalCode": "00000",

"BillAddressCountry": "USA",

"IsPending": false,

"IsFinanceCharge": false,

"DueDate": "2020-11-12T16:00:00",

"IsPaid": true,

"IsToBePrinted": true,

"IsToBeEmailed": true,

"IsTaxIncluded": false,

"IsWaitingForSyncApproval": false,

"TenantID": 1,

"ARAccount": "Accounts Receivable",

"Customer": "Abdullah Shublaq",

"__InvoiceLine":[

{

"Desc": "Invoice Description",

"Quantity": 2,

"Rate": 50,

"IsRatePercent": false,

"ServiceDate": "2020-11-12T16:15:25",

"UnitOfMeasure": "",

"LineOrder": 1,

"LastModifiedDate": "2020-11-12T16:16:08.597",

"Item": "Sales",

"SalesTaxCode": "Non",

"TenantID": 1

}

]

}

Second, what is the request that I can create a new Item throw it to add a new InvoiceLine for this Item?

Finally, what is the request that I can create receive payment for the invoice to make it Paid?

Thanks.
