All accounting related data in Finago Procountor is available via Procountor API as ledger receipts. Different receipts have their own type. Type is automatically set based on the saved receipt by Procountor.

Receipt types cannot be changed nor set by manual (nor through Procountor API).

When a receipt (eg. invoice or bank statement) is saved, then an accounting page (ledger receipts) is created and typed by Procountor. If the receipt (eg. invoice) is modified, then the accounting page is also updated (ie. created again with new id).

Usage of tracking periods is recommended if the accounting data search is done through API interface. It’s not allowed to do any changes in bookkeeping after the closing of tracking period.

Available receipt types are:

*) orders are NOT official business transactions, they should be excluded from official figures.

Almost each receipt has its status. The status of receipt determines whether the receipt is an official business transaction or not. Statuses 'Unfinished', 'Received', 'Verified' and 'Invalidated' are NOT official business transactions.

Further information about the statuses of each receipt type – see table above.

Each ledger receipt has its unique receipt ID (in the database). Ledger receipts can be created again if some changes is done for the receipt itself. The current ledger receipt is deleted and a new one with new id is created. The new ledger receipt replaces the old one.

If the receipt (eg. invoice) is invalidated in user interface, then the accounting page (=ledger receipt) of the receipt is deleted from the database. Invalidated receipt cannot be activated anymore – it has been permanently removed.

Version stamp can used to identify, if any changes has been done since previous search. Please note, that some dimension changes (if done via Dimensions view or Group dimensioning) won’t be recognized. Dimension changes should be done on the Accounting page of the receipt.

Opening receipts are generated automatically when periods are closed. The business transactions of the previous period will be taken into account when generating opening receipts.

There are two types of opening receipts; RECEIPT_FOR_OPENING_ACCOUNTS for opening fiscal year and TRACKING_PERIOD_OPENING_RECEIPT for opening tracking period (a calendar month).

If periods are opened and closed again and again, then new opening receipts are generated again automatically. Opening receipts do not have status. The newest one is the valid one and replaces the previous one; the higher the id number, the newer the receipt.

The accounting pages of opening receipts can be accessed only through general journals or general ledgers created in detailed form in user interface. The accounting rows cannot be edited on these pages, but they can be dimensioned only.
