Retrieve an other charge item

Retrieves an other charge item by ID.

IMPORTANT: If you need to fetch multiple specific other charge items 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/other-charge-items/{id}

Path parameters

idstring required

The QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier of the other charge item to retrieve.

Example:80000001-1234567890

The QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier of the other charge item 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 other charge item.

idstring required

The unique identifier assigned by QuickBooks to this other charge item. This ID is unique across all other charge items but not across different QuickBooks object types.

objectType'qbd_other_charge_item' required

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

createdAtstring required

The date and time when this other charge item 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 other charge item 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 other charge item 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.

namestring required

The case-insensitive name of this other charge item. Not guaranteed to be unique because it does not include the names of its hierarchical parent objects like fullName does. For example, two other charge items could both have the name "Overnight Delivery", but they could have unique fullName values, such as "Shipping Charges:Overnight Delivery" and "Misc Fees:Overnight Delivery".

fullNamestring required

The case-insensitive fully-qualified unique name of this other charge item, formed by combining the names of its hierarchical parent objects with its own name, separated by colons. For example, if an other charge item is under "Shipping Charges" and has the name "Overnight Delivery", its fullName would be "Shipping Charges:Overnight Delivery".

NOTE: Unlike name, fullName is guaranteed to be unique across all other charge item objects. However, fullName can still be arbitrarily changed by the QuickBooks user when they modify the underlying name field.

barcodestring nullable required

The other charge item's barcode.

isActiveboolean required

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

sublevelnumber required

The depth level of this other charge item in the hierarchy. A top-level other charge item has a sublevel of 0; each subsequent sublevel increases this number by 1. For example, an other charge item with a fullName of "Shipping Charges:Overnight Delivery" would have a sublevel of 1.

specialItemType'finance_charge' | 'reimbursable_expense_group' | 'reimbursable_expense_subtotal' nullable required

The type of special item for this other charge item.

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.
