latestOpenAPI 3.0.32026-07-26362271803.3 KBPartial Update Accounting Bill
Performs a partial update of an existing accounting bill using PATCH semantics.
This endpoint allows selective modification of bill fields without requiring
a complete bill replacement. You can update specific aspects of the bill while
leaving other fields unchanged.
**Updatable Fields:**
- Bill metadata (number, dates, descriptions, vendor, entity)
- Line items (amounts, accounts, descriptions, departments)
- Payment terms and due dates
- Tax calculations and allocations
- Custom fields and tags
- Currency and exchange rates
Path parameters
Request body
Return AP account name with number in 'number - name' format, similar to name_and_number.
Navan data region (US/EU) for a Navan-sourced bill, else None.
Mirrors ramp_use_sandbox: the frontend builds the "Open in Navan" deep link from source_id and uses this to pick the web-app host (US -> app.navan.com, EU -> app-fra.navan.com). Navan bills carry no FK to their connection, so the region is resolved per customer and memoized to avoid an N+1 lookup across a bill list.
Withholding context for the bill's entity (AP side).
estimated_withholding_amount covers only the remaining amount due (null once fully paid); withheld_to_date is the signed sum of posted withholding (AP legs are credits, reversals debits), so actuals replace the estimate as payments post. Certificate-based schemes estimate from the vendor certificate's rate valid today (falling back to the scheme default).
