Ledger Code & API

How to add a ledger code to individual invoice posts in ABOSS, and how this data is included in the API for accountancy software integrations.

Written by Geertje

Via the API, invoices in ABOSS can be connected to accounting software. For standard automated posts — such as artist fee or booking fee — developers can set up default ledger codes on their end. We've now added the option to also set a ledger code manually per invoice post in ABOSS, which is included in the API alongside the rest of the invoice data.

Adding a ledger code to an invoice post

  1. Open the invoice you want to edit.

  2. Scroll down to the Invoice Posts section.

  3. Add or edit an invoice post — you'll find a field to enter the ledger code for that specific post.

  4. Save the invoice.

You can set a different ledger code for each individual invoice post, giving you full control over how costs and revenues are mapped in your accounting software.

API

The ledger code per invoice post is available in the ABOSS API. Your developer can use it to map each post to the correct account in your accounting software — the same way default ledger codes are typically set up for standard posts like artist fee or booking fee. ABOSS provides the data; how you use it is up to you and your developer.

Invoice PDF

If your invoice template is set up to display the ledger code, it will also be printed on the invoice PDF per post. This can be configured in your template settings.
