Create bill

Custom dictionary of key:value pairs. You can use this field to store any data related to the object or for your system. Example usage:

1
{
2
  "additionalData": {
3
    "key1": "value1",
4
    "key2": "value2",
5
    "key3": "value3"
6
  }
7
}

An array of bill images. Attachments aren’t required, but we strongly recommend including them. Including a bill image can make payouts smoother and prevent delays. You can include either the Base64-encoded file content, or you can include a furl to a public file. The maximum file size for image uploads is 30 MB.

When vendor enrichment is enabled and the first attachment is a PDF, the invoice is scanned and extracted vendor contact information and bill details (invoice number, amount due, due date) are merged into the request. Fields in the request body take precedence over extracted data. If the scan fails, bill creation proceeds with the original request data. See the vendor enrichment guide for details. Contact Payabli to enable this feature.

Date of bill. Accepted formats: YYYY-MM-DD, MM/DD/YYYY.

Array of LineItems contained in bill.

Due date of bill. Accepted formats: YYYY-MM-DD, MM/DD/YYYY.

End date for scheduled bills. Applied only in Mode = 1. Accepted formats: YYYY-MM-DD, MM/DD/YYYY.

Frequency for operation. The firstofmonth, fifteenthofmonth, and endofmonth values are only valid on subscriptions — they aren’t accepted by other endpoints (such as invoice scheduling) that use this enum.

Bill mode: value 0 for one-time bills, 1 for scheduled bills.

The bill’s status. Values are:

• -99: deleted or canceled
• 1: Active
• 2: Sent to approval
• 5: Partially approved
• 11: Rejected
• 20: Approved
• 50: Payment in transit
• 100: Paid

Payment terms for invoice. If no terms are defined, then response data for this field defaults to NET30.

The vendor associated with the bill. Although you can create a vendor in a create bill request, Payabli recommends creating a vendor separately and passing a valid vendorNumber here. At minimum, the vendorNumber is required.
