Chapter 4.3.13 - Transaction-Level Commit/Uncommit
  • Previous
  • Next

REST v2 provides the ability to commit or uncommit transactions and only include the committed transactions within compliance reports. A transaction can be committed at any time as long as there is a Document Code associated to it. However, be aware that committing or uncommitting a document code commits/uncommits all transactions with the specified Document Code (doc). The Document Code can be associated with a bill run, an invoice, a customer, or a transaction.

Use these methods to commit and uncommit Document Codes:

  • Commit API
  • Commit field (cmmt) directly in the transaction

This page covers the transaction-level Commit/Uncommit process. For more information, see Commit Request.

Transaction-Level Commit Example

This example is committing Document Code (doc) “DocumentXYZ123” by setting the Commit flag (cmmt) to true.
