Request body

namestring required

The name of the general ledger account.

numberstring

The number of the general ledger account.

glEntityIdsstring[] required

The Atlar general ledger entity ids that this general ledger account is associated with. When type is BANK, at most one GL entity id (or an empty list when the bank account is not yet linked). For other types, at least one and at most 100 ids.

currencystring

type'UNSPECIFIED' | 'BANK' | 'ACCOUNTS_PAYABLE' | 'ACCOUNTS_RECEIVABLE'

The general ledger account types are not uniform across other third-party systems. However, it is useful to have a consistent type for the general ledger account. For example, to suggest accounts one can match with a bank account.

displayTypestring required

The general ledger account types are not uniform across other third-party systems. So instead, we accept the raw type from the third-party system that we can display to the user.
