Books

Create multiple journal entries

Changed on

Creates one or more journal entries in a Books instance and returns them. Each journal entry has a datetime, a description, and line entries; each line entry is a debit or credit of an amount to one ledger, i.e. a general ledger (GL) account in the organization's chart of accounts, with its own description and optional tag IDs. Every ledger must belong to the Books instance and must not be read-only. Use expand to include related objects in the response, and modifiedBy to record the user responsible for the change in the audit log. To discover ledger IDs, use getBooksLedgers; to change existing journal entries, use bulkUpdateBooksJournalEntries.
