Suppliers

Change: Update supplier with only name and supplierID is now possible

We have eased the restrictions on the Update a supplier operation. Previously, updating a supplier required at least one valid parameter from corporate identity number, bank account number, plusgiro number, IBAN or a supplier tag(Swedish API). It was required to pass at least one valid supplier tag(International API). With our latest update, this constraint has been removed. Now, you can update supplier information without the necessity of providing any of this info. This change simplifies the update process, allowing for more flexibility in managing supplier data.

Impact:

Increased Flexibility: Users can now update supplier details without the constraint of these requirements.
Simplified Process: The update process is more straightforward, enhancing user experience.

Note for Developers: While the supplier tag information is no longer a prerequisite for updating suppliers, all other existing validation rules and data requirements remain unchanged. Please refer to the updated API documentation for more details on the revised endpoint functionality.

Suppliers (Swedish API version only)

New Feature: International Supplier Support

We're excited to announce that our API now supports international suppliers!

What's New?

Previously, adding a supplier was limited to specific parameters like corporate identity number, bank account number, plusgiro number, and IBAN. Now, with the introduction of suppliertags, you have more flexibility:

Rule-Based Parameters: You can continue using the traditional supplier parameters.
Suppliertags: Introducing suppliertags! Now you can add free-text suppliertags in addition to rule-based parameters. These tags can store various details such as bank account numbers, email addresses, supplier names, phone numbers, and more.

How Does It Work?

Simply include any relevant information in these suppliertags. The text provided in these tags should match the text on the document to retrieve the correct supplier. This feature offers enhanced customization and adaptability to accommodate a wider range of supplier information.

Why It Matters?

Flexibility: Choose between traditional parameters or suppliertags, or even use both simultaneously.
Retrieval: The suppliertags enable accurate supplier retrieval by matching the details provided in the tags with the document information.

Feel free to explore this new feature and streamline your supplier management process! For detailed documentation, check out updated API documentation.

March 2022

Our Sandbox API is now live!

With Sandbox, anyone can create an account and test AzoraOne's self learning capabilities for themselves. Try it out here!

February 2022

When AzoraOne is unable to locate a decimal value (received in the bookkeeping request) on a document, the service will (on APIs where rounding is enabled) try to find values within the rounding range of the value. This way, the values in bookkeeping request do not necessarily have to be identical to the values on the document, providing a bit of slack for the user when bookkeeping with AzoraOne. This month's changes all relate to this functionality which we refer to as approximation.

2022-02-01

A rare case has been observed where AzoraOne has built models (based on approximated values) that will return two incorrect values in the extract response. This case has been observed only when the value has been bookkept both on the debit and credit side (i.e. in reversed sales tax). Today's fix is expected to solve the issue in full.

2022-02-22

When approximating with values on the credit side of accounts, AzoraOne would, in some cases, calculate the balance incorrectly. This would lead AzoraOne to conclude that the values found were not correct, and hence, these values (even if correct) would be removed from our response. We expect today's update to solve the issue in full.

January 2022

2022-01-13

We fixed an issue where some characters in file names could cause unwanted behavior. The service will no longer allow file names containing the characters below.

" | < >

The service will now return the following error message when these characters are present in the file name.

{
    "code": 211502,
    "message": "File name is not valid.",
    "details": "",
    "element": "file"
}

}

Affected resources:

GET ...{api}/{version}/companies/{companyID}/files/{fileID}/supplierInvoices

PUT ...{api}/{version}/companies/{companyID}/files/{fileID}/supplierInvoices

April 2019

Description

We have increased the accuracy on the description parameter in the receipts resource. Unlike most parameters in AzoraOne, it works by a pretty static extraction mechanism. By comparing the text of the extracted document to what has previously been entered as description on similar documents it will return a description only if a match can be confirmed. If the description contains more than one word, only words matching the current document will be returned.

We also added the ability to include the description parameter in the supplier invoice endpoint. Get in contact with us if you want this parameter in your API.

Added PATCH files

We have added another operation on the files resource that allows users to change how the file was sorted.

You can change the type and verificationSeries parameters in the files resource as you wish.

PATCH ...{api}/{version}/companies/{companyID}/files/{fileID}

{
    "type": "Receipt",
    "verificationSeries": "A"
}

Svefaktura

The files resource now accepts Svefaktura as a format. This feature is still in BETA but will be worked upon further.

January 2018

Extended

We have added extended information to responses.

{
    "success": true,
    "data": "",
    "extended": "",
    "meta": "",
    "time": "2018-01-12 07:40:48"

{
    "supplierID": "1",
    "invoiceDate": "2018-01-01",
    "dueDate": "2018-01-27",
    "invoiceNumber": "",

            "debit": "0.00",
            "credit": "0.11"
        }
    ]
}

PlusGiro

We have also added plusgiro to the company and supplier resources.

{
    "companyID": "10",
    "companyName": "Flyttservice Kalmar Lan AB",
    "active": true,
    "corporateIdentityNumber": "556754-9273",
    "bankAccountNumber": "",
    "plusGiroNumber": "123456-6",

We have added more parameters to this resource in order to provide more detailed information about a file and its current state.

{
    "fileID": "100",
    "fileName": "samplereceipt.jpg",
    "status": "READY",
    "type": "Receipt",
    "verificationSeries": "A"
}

The parameter status can be used to identify if a file is ready to be extracted from.

We have added another operation on the files resource that returns detailed information about the file.

GET ...{api}/{version}/companies/{companyID}/files/{fileID}

Webhooks

Webhooks are now available for testing.

May 2017

The API has only gone through minor changes this month.

We have added a requested response element that will help you when an extraction fails due to missing supplier

Meta data

If AzoraOne fails to match a supplier invoice to an existing supplier upon extraction, guiding information will be supplied in the response. At element in the data object you will find all corporate identity numbers, bank account numbers and IBAN numbers that have been possible to extract from the document.

You might use this data to update an existing supplier with more information or, more likely, to add a non-existent supplier to your application.

April 2017

There have been some changes to the API this month. Here you can read about all of the changes in order to understand them better.

Receipts

Now you will be able to extract data from yet another document type, receipts. Upload a file and extract data directly from it within seconds. There is no need for adding suppliers with this resource. Simply upload, extract and bookkeep.

The new resource can be reached in the same way as supplier invoices.

Extract:

GET ...{api}/api/companies/{companyID}/files/{fileID}/receipts

Bookkeep:

PUT ...{api}/api/companies/{companyID}/files/{fileID}/receipts

Multiple suppliers

Added operation for adding multiple suppliers in a single request

Send multiple suppliers to:

…{api}/api/companies/{companyID}/suppliers/multiple

This feature currently only applies to the suppliers resource. Other resources, such as files and companies, only support one entity per request.

More file formats supported

A POST to the files resource now supports the following formats:

PDF
PNG
JPG
JPEG

In order to handle those formats, the Content-Type has to be set in the request body.
