Posting test data, Invoice transaction fails - 422 Unprocessable Entity

[CE Comms Dev]

Following this guide https://developer.sage.com/accounting/quick-start/preparing-to-create-test-data/

 

Each failing request has a line in the Postman console TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined , which is happening on the lines in the test, so maybe that is not related to the 422 error. 

var setresp = pm.environment.get("invoice_metadata")

var indexCount = parseInt(pm.collectionVariables.get("indexcount")-1)

var invData = setresp[indexCount]

invData[2] = bodyData.contact.id

invData[3] = bodyData.id

I found the issue was actually due to not being registered for VAT.

 

Adding VAT details at https://accounts-extra.sageone.com/settings/financial_settings fixed this

Hi,

Thanks for your post, currently we do require the business to be a UK VAT registered in order to work correctly (as referred to in the pre-requisites), I'll make some changes to that based on your issue, to call out where to do it if you already have an existing business you want to work with. 

I appreciate the feedback thank you!
