VAT Fields on Journal Entry Line Items

Journal entry line items now accept optional vat_code and vat_type fields, letting you record VAT directly when creating or updating journal entries.

  • vat_code — the code or description of an existing VAT rate configured for the journal entry subsidiary's country. When provided, vat_type is required. VAT is always treated as inclusive.
  • vat_type — the VAT reporting type for the line. Accepts Revenue, Revenues, Expense, or Expenses (case-insensitive).

Your organization must have an account with the "Sales Tax Liability" subtype configured before recording journal entries that include a VAT rate.

Supported on POST /journal-entries, PUT /journal-entries/{id}, and POST /journal-entries/bulk. V3 and later.
