Headers

Conductor-End-User-Idstring required

The ID of the End-User to receive this request.

Example:end_usr_1234567abcdefg

The ID of the End-User to receive this request.

Request body

namestring required

The case-insensitive unique name of this price level, unique across all price levels.

NOTE: Price levels do not have a fullName field because they are not hierarchical objects, which is why name is unique for them but not for objects that have parents.

Maximum length: 31 characters.

isActiveboolean

Indicates whether this price level is active. Inactive objects are typically hidden from views and reports in QuickBooks. Defaults to true.

fixedPercentagestring

The fixed percentage adjustment applied to all items for this price level (instead of a per-item price level). Once you create the price level, you cannot change this.

When this price level is applied to a customer, it automatically adjusts the rate and amount columns for applicable line items in sales orders and invoices for that customer. This value supports both positive and negative values - a value of "20" increases prices by 20%, while "-10" decreases prices by 10%.

currencyIdstring

The price level's currency. For built-in currencies, the name and code are standard ISO 4217 international values. For user-defined currencies, all values are editable.

Example request

  "name": "Wholesale 20% Discount",
  "isActive": true,
  "fixedPercentage": "-10.0",

revisionNumberstring required

The current QuickBooks-assigned revision number of this price level object, which changes each time the object is modified. When updating this object, you must provide the most recent revisionNumber to ensure you're working with the latest data; otherwise, the update will return an error.
