Expense Queries

has a text value which is a list from the enumerated
types of expenses currently allowed by FreeAgent. I’ve incorporated
support for all existing types (as of 14th October 2008) and any new
ones created and received by FreeAgent. I appreciate this might be low
priority, but the facility to query the possible types (perhaps
exposed as another message type) would be useful to keep the types in
sync.

does not appear to have a value. How can I support the
drop-down values? Do you expect to see “Weekly”, “Quarterly”, etc?

Which elements do I have to use the nil=true attribute for? Not all
elements seem to use it. In the examples (API SDK) the element is empty but doesn’t have it. Is that because
this is a string value and only integer values require the nil=true
attribute?

How do I stipulate “Auto” as per web entry into FAC
– or are these entries on FAC entered as “Auto” have the tax rate
determined and stored as the percentage value? In which case, would it
be possible to have access to the list of tax values for each of the
expense-types?

If you happen to have an .xsd schema for the message types I’d really
love that :slight_smile:

Hi Mike,

Just to let you know that support for extracting the expense types and
recurring periods will be added in the next release later this week.On Oct 21, 1:16 pm, Mike Wilson mike.wil...@evolvedsoftwarestudios.com wrote:

Great, thanks Olly :slight_smile:

Documentation? Pah, real developers don’t need documentation!

Can you tell I’ve just been working with the iPhone? :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks Olly. This is great, I can’t wait to see what you’ve done.

Aha! There will actually be some read-only bank account/entry access
in this weeks release too, although it’s early days so won’t be
documented. No bank transaction access yet though. I’ll post to the
group about what’s available after the releaseOn Dec 15, 5:44 pm, Mike Wilson mike.wil...@evolvedsoftwarestudios.com wrote:

Great stuff, thanks Olly.

For what it’s worth, if I may, could I put a +1 vote on bank account
and bank account entry next? :slight_smile:

Best,

Mike

This is a good idea, we’ll add it to the list

does not appear to have a value. How can I support the

This is an area which is currently lacking in the API. We’ll look at
adding better support for this in the coming weeks.

Which elements do I have to use the nil=true attribute for? Not all
elements seem to use it. In the examples (API SDK) the element is empty but doesn’t have it. Is that because

Again, the documenation could be better for this but you’re right,
can indeed be nil. Another one for the list.

– or are these entries on FAC entered as “Auto” have the tax rate
determined and stored as the percentage value? In which case, would it
be possible to have access to the list of tax values for each of the
expense-types?

This is another area where the API is lacking. On the list.

If you happen to have an .xsd schema for the message types I’d really
love that :slight_smile:

I’ll endeavour to produce an XSD once we’re out of beta :slight_smile:

Great, thanks Olly :slight_smile:
