Retrieve a receive-payment

Retrieves a receive-payment by ID.

IMPORTANT: If you need to fetch multiple specific receive-payments by ID, use the list endpoint instead with the ids parameter. It accepts an array of IDs so you can batch the request into a single call, which is significantly faster.

get/quickbooks-desktop/receive-payments/{id}

Path parameters

idstring required

The QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier of the receive-payment to retrieve.

Example:123ABC-1234567890

The QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier of the receive-payment to retrieve.

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.

Response

Returns the specified receive-payment.

idstring required

The unique identifier assigned by QuickBooks to this receive-payment. This ID is unique across all transaction types.

objectType'qbd_receive_payment' required

The type of object. This value is always "qbd_receive_payment".

createdAtstring required

The date and time when this receive-payment was created, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm), which QuickBooks Desktop interprets in the local timezone of the end-user's computer.

updatedAtstring required

The date and time when this receive-payment was last updated, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm), which QuickBooks Desktop interprets in the local timezone of the end-user's computer.

revisionNumberstring required

The current QuickBooks-assigned revision number of this receive-payment 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.

transactionDatestring date required

The date of this receive-payment, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD).

refNumberstring nullable required

The case-sensitive user-defined reference number for this receive-payment, which can be used to identify the transaction in QuickBooks. This value is not required to be unique and can be arbitrarily changed by the QuickBooks user.

totalAmountstring required

The total monetary amount of this receive-payment, represented as a decimal string.

exchangeRatenumber nullable required

The market exchange rate between this receive-payment's currency and the home currency in QuickBooks at the time of this transaction. Represented as a decimal value (e.g., 1.2345 for 1 EUR = 1.2345 USD if USD is the home currency).

totalAmountInHomeCurrencystring nullable required

The total monetary amount of this receive-payment converted to the home currency of the QuickBooks company file. Represented as a decimal string.

memostring nullable required

A memo or note for this receive-payment that will be displayed at the beginning of reports containing details about this receive-payment.

unusedPaymentstring nullable required

The amount of this receive-payment that remains unapplied to any transactions. This occurs in two cases: (1) When the sum of paymentAmount amounts in applyToTransactions is less than totalAmount, leaving a portion of the payment unused, or (2) When a payment is received that equals the exact amount of an invoice, but credits or discounts are also applied, resulting in excess payment.

unusedCreditsstring nullable required

The amount of credit that remains unused after applying credits to this receive-payment. This occurs when the applyCredit.appliedAmount specified for a credit memo (applyCredit.creditMemoId) in the applyToTransactions array is less than the total available credit amount for that credit memo.

externalIdstring nullable required

A globally unique identifier (GUID) you, the developer, can provide for tracking this object in your external system. This field is immutable and can only be set during object creation.
