How Multiple Line Items Work
When including multiple line items for your payables, you will need to duplicate all payable-level information for each line item. Meaning all of the fields that don’t have “Line item” prefix in the name will contain the same information so that our system knows each of the line items are related to a single payable.
⭐️ A required ID field is present to allow you to enter multiple line items per each bill that you’re creating. This also helps to prevent importing duplicate bills.
🎗 You will also need to ensure that all of the amounts for the payable (including Line item amount and Total amount) are calculated following the rules configured in your accounting software.
