Transfer API : error ('one foreign currency per transaction') but works in UI console (repost)

super_mega · ‎February 16, 2024

Hello,

I post this topic here as well as we put the post on singapore page by error instead of US.

We're using the API to make a transfer request from two bank accounts of type checking.

- One is of type USD (domestic currency)

- The other is of type BOB (Bolivian peso).

On the console UI: transfer of 1162 bolivian peso from BOB bank account to USD bank account => OK
Using the transfer API we get an error => KO

Here is the payload:
{
"Amount": 120,
"ToAccountRef": {
"value": "92"
},
"FromAccountRef": {
"value": "35"
}
}

Hello,

Thank you @KimberlyS

I don't know why there is indeed twice the same posts on US forum.

I just replied to your colleague.

For some reason my response is not showing there...

Important thing:
The error I get from the API is a bug and not an incorrect usage of the API.
I would like to bring this issue/error directly to the quickbooks api dev team.
(I don't think the forum community could do something about it)

Regards

Charles
