Use case

The entrepreneur has a basement shop. No other locations ie. dimensions is not used. Daily cash sales are imported for accounting as voucher. In sample some custom-specified accounts are used alongside Finago Procountor’s default accounts. No cash report attached.

Used endpoints

POST /ledgerreceipts endpoint creates a new voucher (ledgerReceipt in API). Status of new ledger receipt is always “UNFINISHED”. It is possible to approve ledger receipts via Procountor API using PUT
/ledgerreceipts/{receiptId}/approve endpoint.

Posting a ledger receipt of daily cash sales by different accounts receivables. Debit transactions as positive, credit transactions as negative. Total of receipts should be zero, some rounding / reconciliations may occur. As transaction type used ‘ENTRY’
