Create “Draft” Transactions In Zumzum Financials.
Transactions that create ledger records in the General Ledger need to be created with the Zumzum API. There are many transactions that do not create ledger entries, so therefore do not impact your financial reports.
If you prefer to create your own draft transactions in the system, then you will need to handle and manage Document Numbers (e.g. Sales Invoice Number) as well as currency conversion rates at a line item level. If you only trade in a single currency then this will be a relatively simple task. However, if you have multiple companies, each trading with it’s own company currency and transaction currencies, then managing the calculations for currency conversions may become an arduous task so you may prefer to use the Zumzum API for creating transactions.
The following list of transactions may be created in draft mode in Zumzum Financials:
| Transaction Type | Create Draft Transaction | Zumzum API |
|---|---|---|
| Journal and Journal Line Items | Yes | No |
| Sales Invoices and Sales invoice Line items | Yes | Yes |
| Purchase Invoice with Purchase Invoice Line Item | Yes | No |
