CreditNotes

Query, insert and update credit notes for a Xero organisation.

Table Specific Information

The CreditNotes table allows you to SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE credit note line items for a Xero organization. The Id column is generated by the 本製品; the value of this field combines the index of the line item with the unique, Xero-generated CreditNoteId.

Optimized Filters and High Volume Thresholds

The Xero API defines a list of optimized filters for certain tables and views. If any query filter not included in this list is applied to any such table or view, and the number of records available in that table or view exceeds a certain value (what Xero calls a "high volume threshold"), the Xero API will block the query.

To avoid the rejection of your queries by the Xero API, if the the number of records in your table or view exceed the high volume threshold, make sure to use filters from the list of optimized filters.

Note that the high volume threshold, as well as the exact list of optimized filters, is subject to change as Xero updates its API.

The Xero API does not list a high volume threshold for the CreditNotes table. The Xero API lists the following optimized filters for this table:

Optimized columns (when used in WHERE clauses):
- Status
- Date
- Reference
- Contact.ContactID
- Contact.Name
- Contact.ContactNumber
- Type
Optimized ORDER BY columns:
- CreditNoteID
- UpdatedDateUTC
- Date

SELECT

The Xero API allows extensive filtering and ordering. You can define WHERE and ORDER BY clauses in a query to filter and order the results using any non-line-item column.

Note: The Xero API does not support filtering on line items or journal lines.

INSERT

To insert a single row, set the required fields. A new table object is created as a single entry. To insert a new credit note, the Contact_Name field is required. For a credit note to be approved, the following fields must be defined in addition to at least one line item: Contact_Name, Date, and LineAmountTypes.

In addition to inserting a single row, line item tables offer two additional ways to insert into a table.

You can also insert a new object with multiple line items using XML aggregates. The elements supported here are the same as the LineItem columns without the "LineItem_" prefix, except when assigning tracking categories. Please refer to the Xero documentation of the CreditNotes API for more details.
```
INSERT INTO CreditNotes (Type, Contact_Name, LineItemAggregate) VALUES (
  'ACCPAYCREDIT',
  'John Doe',
  '<LineItem>
	<Description>LineItemDesc1</Description>
	<Quantity>1</Quantity>
  </LineItem>
  <LineItem>
	<Description>LineItemDesc2</Description>
	<Quantity>2</Quantity>
  </LineItem>'
)
```
You can insert a new line item on an existing object by specifying the Xero-generated identifier of the existing record. For example, to add a line item to an existing credit note:
```
INSERT INTO CreditNotes (CreditNoteId, LineItem_Description, LineItem_Quantity) VALUES ('XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX', 'New Line Item Desc', 1)
```

Note: Inserting into existing records will count as two operations against the Xero API. One is required to retrieve the existing record, and another to update the record with new data.

UPDATE

You can update any field that is not read-only.

Note: UPDATE operations will count as two operations against the Xero API. One is required to retrieve the existing record, and another to update the record with new data.

DELETE

The Xero API has limited support for deleting any object. In order to delete objects, you must update their Status to an appropriate value.

Applicable values for this field may be state-dependent. For example, invoices can only have their status set to DELETED when the invoice status is currently DRAFT or SUBMITTED.
