Retrieve an item receipt

Retrieves an item receipt by ID.

IMPORTANT: If you need to fetch multiple specific item receipts 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.

NOTE: The response automatically includes any linked transactions.
