Use the Invoice Ingestion API to create standalone invoices by providing the required
details to import invoices from an external system. You can also use the API to generate
invoices from debit memos.
Required Editions
To create or import invoices by using the Invoice Ingestion API, provide invoice details from
any standard or custom Salesforce object record, or an external system. If the ingested
invoice lines have the Tax Processing Status value as either Pending or Estimated, the Invoice Estimated Tax Calculation API is used to
calculate estimated taxes for these invoice lines.
The API creates Invoice, Invoice Line, Invoice Line Tax, and Invoice Address Group records
based on the specified details.
If you specify an order ID as the referenceEntityId property value in the
Invoice Ingestion API, the generated invoices appear on the All Invoices related list of the
Order record.
To generate invoices from debit memos, specify the debit memo ID as the
referenceEntityId property value in the request body of this API. Make sure
that the debit memo is in Posted status and is ready for invoice generation.
The invoice is generated in Draft status.
