Insert
To add a JournalEntry, there must be at least one credit line and at least one debit line where the total of the debit and credit Lines are equal to each other. The LineAggregate column may be used to specify an XML aggregate of Line Item data. Each _ denotes hierarchy. Use <Line> at the base level. The contents of LineAggregate will be sent to the API as is. All values for each field in the aggregate should adhere to the API's specifications (e.g. for dates in format yyyy-MM-dd, for date times in format yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:sszzz).The columns that may be used in the aggregates begin with the prefix 'Line_' to indicate they are part of the line item. Use the Line_ column along with the DocNumber to indicate which lines go with which JournalEntries. For example:
INSERT INTO JournalEntries (LineAggregate) VALUES (' <Line><Amount>0.02</Amount><DetailType>JournalEntryLineDetail</DetailType><JournalEntryLineDetail><PostingType>Debit</PostingType><Entity><Type>Customer</Type><EntityRef>24</EntityRef></Entity><AccountRef>33</AccountRef></JournalEntryLineDetail></Line> <Line><Amount>0.02</Amount><DetailType>JournalEntryLineDetail</DetailType><JournalEntryLineDetail><PostingType>Credit</PostingType><AccountRef>14</AccountRef></JournalEntryLineDetail></Line> ')
