A receipt that is already attached to another ledger entry is moved to the given one. ## Attaching an uploaded receipt If you [uploaded a receipt](/api/receipts/upload) without a `ledgerEntryId`, it lands in the document inbox. Use this endpoint to attach it to a ledger entry later, for example once the corresponding entry has been posted: ```bash theme={null} curl -X POST https://api.infinity.swiss/v1/receipts/686f1b2ce9500b3ffe4bbc71/attach \ -H "x-api-token: your-api-token" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "ledgerEntryId": "682338d9e9500b3ffe4baa5a" }' ``` The receipt is filed to the `receipts` location and the response reflects the ledger entry it is now attached to. A receipt that is already attached to another ledger entry is moved to the given one. Ledger entries with VAT are booked as two transactions internally. Only the id of the ledger entry itself, as returned by [find ledger entries](/api/accounting/find), is accepted here — the id of the VAT transaction results in a `404 Not Found` response with the error code `transactions/not-found`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml POST /v1/receipts/{receiptId}/attach openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: infinity.swiss Open API version: '1.0' summary: '' servers: - url: https://api.infinity.swiss security: - apiKey: [] paths: /v1/receipts/{receiptId}/attach: parameters: - schema: type: string name: receiptId in: path description: The id of the receipt, as returned when it was uploaded required: true post: tags: [] summary: Attach a receipt to a ledger entry description: >- Attaches a previously uploaded receipt to a ledger entry, and files it to the `receipts` location.
