Query, insert and update manual journals for a Xero organisation.

Table Specific Information

The ManualJournals table allows you to SELECT, INSERT, and UPDATE manual journals journal lines for a Xero organization. The Id column is generated by the 本製品; it combines the index of the line item with the unique, Xero-generated ManualJournalId.

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 ManualJournals table. The Xero API lists the following optimized filters for this table:

• Optimized columns (when used in WHERE clauses):
  • Narration
• Optimized ORDER BY columns:
  • ManualJournalId
  • 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 manual journal record, the Narration field is required in addition to at least two line items. A journal record must contain at least one credit and one debit, so that the record as a whole is balanced.

1. You can insert a new object with multiple line items using an XML aggregate. The elements supported here are the same as the JournalLine columns without the "JournalLine_" prefix, except when assigning tracking categories. Please refer to the Xero documentation of the ManualJournals API for more details.
   

   INSERT INTO ManualJournals (Narration, JournalLineAggregate) VALUES (
     'Accrued expenses',
     '<JournalLine>
   		<Description>Coded incorrectly Office Equipment should be Computer Equipment</Description>
   		<TaxType>NONE</TaxType>
   		<LineAmount>-2569</LineAmount>
   		<AccountCode>720</AccountCode>
   	</JournalLine>
   	<JournalLine>
   		...
   	</JournalLine>'
   )

2. You can also insert a new line item on an existing object by specifying the Xero-generated value of the existing record. For example, to add a line item to an existing invoice:
   

   INSERT INTO ManualJournals (ManualJournalId, JournalLine_LineAmount, JournalLine_AccountCode) VALUES ('XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX', 55.00, '200')

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.
