Help Needed: Creating PO-Based AP Bill via API in Sage Intacct

[Anis Mulla]

Hi everyone,

I’m working on integrating Sage Intacct and trying to create a vendor bill (APBILL) via the API. Specifically, I want to create a bill based on a purchase order (PO).

When I convert a PO to a vendor bill using the UI, the PO is successfully converted, and its status changes to "Converted." However, when attempting the same functionality via the API, I'm running into issues.

For non-PO bills, I’m able to create them successfully using the <create><APBILL> function. But I’m struggling with creating a PO-based bill.

I’ve already tried including the PO details in the XML payload but haven’t had any luck. Below is a sample of the XML payload I used:

Could someone guide me on the correct XML structure or steps required to achieve this?

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
