Get General Ledger Transactions for Some Period

If you are using the contract-based REST API to integrate MYOB Acumatica with an external system, this external system can retrieve general ledger transactions for the specified period from MYOB Acumatica. For this purpose, you can use the Account Details for Period (GL404001) generic inquiry.

System Preparation

Before you test the code below, you need to do the following to configure your client application and the MYOB Acumatica instance to be used:
  1. Deploy a new MYOB Acumatica instance with the U100 dataset. For details on deploying an instance, see Instance Deployment: To Deploy an Instance with Demo Data.
  2. To sign in to the instance in the client application, use the tenant name (which you specified when you created the instance) and the HEADOFFICE branch.
  3. If you use Postman as the client application for testing, in the IntegrationDevelopmentGuide.postman_collection.json collection, make sure that the collection’s variables have the proper values. This collection is located in the IntegrationDevelopment\Help folder of the Help-and-Training-Examples repository on GitHub.

Request

You can use the following request example to retrieve general ledger transactions made from March to April 2022 through the contract-based REST API.

Tip:
In the request example below, <MYOB Acumatica instance URL> is the URL of the MYOB Acumatica instance (such as https://my.acumatica.com/MyInstance). You can omit the instance name in the URL (that is, you can use https://my.acumatica.com) if the instance is installed in the root of the website.
