[Bill credit notes](https://docs.codat.io/accounting-api#/schemas/BillCreditNote) are issued by a supplier for the purpose of recording credit. **Integration-specific behavior** Required data may vary by integration. To see what data to post, first call [Get create/update bill credit note model](https://docs.codat.io/accounting-api#/operations/get-create-update-billCreditNotes-model). ## Query parameters - `timeoutInMinutes` integer - `forceUpdate` boolean ## Request body - BillCreditNote, nullable — > **Bill credit notes or credit notes?** > > In Codat, bill credit notes represent accounts payable only.
