Excel Add-In for Xero

Build 24.0.9060

PurchaseOrders

Query, insert and update purchase orders for a Xero organisation.

Table Specific Information

The PurchaseOrders table allows you to SELECT, INSERT, and UPDATE PurchaseOrder lines for a Xero organization. The Id column is generated by the add-in; it combines the index of the line item with the unique, Xero-generated PurchaseOrderId.

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 Purchase Order, the ContactId and Date fields are required in addition to at least one line item. A PurchaseOrder line item must at minimum contain a description (LineItem_Description).

  1. You can insert a new Purchase Order with multiple line items using an XML aggregate. The elements supported here are the same as the LineItem columns without the "LineItem_" prefix. Please refer to the Xero documentation of the Purchase Order API for more details.
    INSERT INTO PurchaseOrders (Contact_ContactId, LineItemAggregate) VALUES (
      '883628bc-7f22-4234-8a4c-81571816a8a1',
      '<LineItem>
    		<Description>Example Description</Description>
       </LineItem>
       <LineItem>
    		...
       </LineItem>'
    )
  2. You can also create multiple Purchase Orders in a single query by using a bulk insert. To do this, you should not include a PurchaseOrderId in your query, then specify the values for the first line item of each PurchaseOrder to add.
    INSERT INTO PurchaseOrders (Contact_ContactId, LineItem_Description)
      VALUES
    ('37ec4d02-dc3f-4a4c-a943-e8ae8c7db93a', 'Example1'),
    ('abcd1234-1234-1b2c-a123-abcde12345ab', 'Example2')
  3. You can also insert new line items on an existing object by specifying the Xero-generated value of the existing record. For example, to add 2 new line items to an existing Purchase Order:
    INSERT INTO PurchaseOrders (PurchaseOrderId, LineItem_Description)
      VALUES
    ('fbb38812-dcc4-4e07-9ebd-2c38e1409b18', 'Example1'),
    ('fbb38812-dcc4-4e07-9ebd-2c38e1409b18', 'Example2')

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.
