I'm trying to use the Xero API to download all transactions to reproduce the general ledger in an external system so I can use it to reconcile figures within that system.
So far, I've got it downloading invoices, bank transactions, manual journals and credit notes, but it looks like bank transactions that are allocated as a payment against an invoice don't show up in the bank transactions API call. Is this correct or am I missing something?
If I do need to download Payments, there doesn't seem to be a paging method. Is this correct or am I missing something here?
Also, is there anything else that I need to download that might affect net movement on the general ledger?
Regarding the missing payments in bank transactions, this answer should help.
The Payments endpoint doesn't have paging according to the docs, just the If-Modified-Since header.
For our external system we started with the Journals endpoint (which should have everything that adjusts the GL) and supplemented it where needed with additional fields from other endpoints depending on the source type.

I am trying to display a users transaction history in binance, including fund deposits and withdrawals as well as buying and selling of different crypto's. Does anyone know which binance API endpoints I would use to do this? It seems quite complicated in comparison to other trading platforms.
Thanks
This is the link to the docs: https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/spot/en/#withdraw-history-supporting-network-user_data
I can see the Wallet endpoints "Withdraw" and "Deposit", but this won't cover crypto trading will it?, The account trade list call would be ideal, but it requires a symbol input which I'm not sure how I would obtain dynamically.
I would also like this endpoint to provide me with the data so I can get the avg buy price for a crypto
Currently this is not supported. See: https://dev.binance.vision/t/fetch-all-account-orders/279/3
This is the route you're looking for to get the user trade history. The big downside is that you have to specify the exchange symbol, you cannot get the history of the account with just one request:
https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/spot/en/#account-trade-list-user_data
Get your account information first. You can then extract non-zero balances from here to get symbols for transactions. You can then loop through each currency pair and get its transaction history. This seems to be the most optimistic way we can get right now
You can also try to use caching. For example, you can remember balance for a particular coin, and if it has not changed by the next launch, then it is likely (but not 100%) that no transactions were made with it
You can also connect to WebSocket, but this is still a terrible crutch and requires a DOS attack to get the necessary data
Please note that here the balances for Savings wallet have LD prefix added to their ticker. For example, BTC in the Savings wallet is labeled as LDBTC
We have built an e-commerce web application (Node backend, Vue frontend). We process the payment using Stripe, but many brands have asked us if the order and inventory control can be done in Shopify. We are trying to figure out the best way integrate a payment module into Shopify so that the brand can manage the fulfilment and inventory through Shopify.
It seems we should use the Order API to create an order and mark it as paid. But how do we know that the product is in stock, and what are the cost for shipping and tax from Shopify when creating the order? I think we can use the Product API to get inventory levels, but where is the shipping and tax endpoints?
If I understand the Order API correctly, we need to tell Shopify what are the shipping costs and tax costs, when a new order is created. Is that right? How could we possibly know those figures? Seems like there should be an endpoint to calculate shipping costs and get a product's tax rates so that we can then pass those figures back into the Order API. Am I missing something?
I thought maybe we are supposed to create an order that has financial_status: pending first to get shipping and tax rates back (does it even give you those?), then update the order to either cancel_reason: customer or cancel_reason: inventory if those rates are too expensive and the order is declined? But surely we need to know what shipping methods are available to the customer in order to tell Shopify which one to use, right? Or does it by default choose the cheapest one when creating an order?
Notes:
We know the customers shipping address
We don't know where the product is warehoused (Shopify does I think)
We don't know the weights or dimensions of the product (Shopify does I think)
This answer is a little bit late, but i hope, i can help others that are struggling with the same issue.
First i would recommend to set up all Shipping Rates and Taxes in Shopify. There are plenty of manuals to achieve this:
https://help.shopify.com/manual/taxes#general-process-to-set-up-taxes
https://help.shopify.com/manual/shipping/rates-and-methods/calculated-rates
After this there are different possibilities to calculate your shipping and tax cost.
Your shipping cost can you get via the active_shipping API, which can be found here:
https://github.com/Shopify/active_shipping
Or the following Shopify Application: https://apps.shopify.com/boxify
However, you may need to know size and storage location for theese solutions.
The taxes can you get via the country in the Admin API, there is a specific key-value pair for this:
https://help.shopify.com/api/reference/country
I hope that's enough information to get closer to solving the issue, for at least someone.
I've looked into different ways to put or get order info from BC to different systems including the BC API, BC Webhooks, Zapier, and other systems like Shipworks.... in the end what I need to do is this:
We need orders placed on BigCommerce to send out a special invoice to the customer. The items that the customer purchased will have custom attributes, a "Tier" and a separate "Unit QTY" which is not the same as the item quantity.
We need to group the items by Tier, and show subtotals of the Unit Qty and Cost. Send this in an invoice as soon as the order is placed on the website.
We are already syncing to Quickbooks online, which does not have the functionality.
Looking for suggestions on different platforms/languages/email services like mailgun/and even shipping integration tools like shipworks, ordoro etc. that might have the ability to code a custom email template like this.
My customer is keeping bigcommerce, no option to switch this out.
I am mainly a Salesforce developer so my strong suit would be to sync the orders to SFDC and code in apex, send the invoice. But before investing in the time, wanted to see if I'm missing some quick potential solutions.
Anyone use Zapier Javascript/Python code platform?
Apologies if this is too open-ended. I feel that this could be a good reference for others in the community about options and best practices.
Hmm your question is pretty broad. Maybe a few links to API documentation could help?
Bigcommerce API - https://developer.bigcommerce.com/api
Ordoro API - https://www.ordoro.com/developer
Send this in an invoice as soon as the order is placed on the website.
I think what you need is a Bigcommerce webhook for store/order/created. See https://developer.bigcommerce.com/api/webhooks-getting-started.
Alternatively, you could set up a cron job that polls BigCommerce for new orders and then sends the email notification.
I am making changes to my companies internal paysite in order to come into compliance with the new credit card regulations. We have decided that when we get a split tender transaction that comes through we want to get the remaining balance along with how much was on the card to start out with and send that info back to the customer service rep with a message relaying the need for another payment source along with the remaining balance and the amount that was originally on the card.
Instead of chaining the transactions together with the split tender Id we have decided we would like to finalize each split tender transaction with a prior_auth_capture and then request the next payment source and amount and process that transaction in the same manner. I know that we are side stepping the functionality some but those are my orders.
My questions are, is this feasible and possible and how do you do this in code? I am using the C# SDK to implement this in VB.NET 2008
My thoughts are that I would have to process the transaction for the amount passed as a auth_capture transaction and then some how do the prior_auth_transaction with a zero amount or something?
How would this work?
Thanks for much for your help.

This is not feasible to do. The purpose of split tender payments is to logically group together split payments into one transaction. By breaking it up into multiple transactions it can get confusing for you, the users, and the processor. Especially if you have issues getting the user to make full payment on their transaction. Failing to void the other transactions would be very problematic. This almost certainly will result in an increased exposure to chargebacks.
I've been researching eCommerce payment gateways and service offerings, but I'm an eCommerce novice, so please excuse my ignorance.
I wish to set up an eCommerce solution with the following requirements:
User "subscribes" to the service on a yearly basis. This service includes a single product subscription for a set amount (let's say $50/yr).
User can "subscribe" to additional product services for a lesser rate per year (let's say $25/yr).
I will need to store a product service unique Id of some sort for each product subscription the user subscribes to in order to show them product unique information. I also need to prevent duplicates...for example, user can subscribe to product ABC and XYZ, but not 2 of ABC.
Is PayPal the best solution for something like this? Is there a better solution? Any assistance is greatly appreciated, even if just links to specific tutorials or examples.
Update: It looks like Chargify could be the perfect solution.
You can also use Authorize.Net's CIM solution which, based on what I read at the chargify website, does most of what chargify does except your customers never need to leave your website. The Customer Information Manager allows you to create profiles for your members. These profiles store sensitive information like credit card numbers and billing information so you don't have to worry about PCI compliance or hackers stealing your information. You then can schedule a cron job to charge them monthly for whatever amount they owe based on their current subscription. Since you control when the payments happen it also allows you to charge them pro-rated amounts for subscription changes mid-month.
[link text][1] seems to be the best solution for me. I still need a merchant account, but this takes a lot of the headache out of handling the subscriptions.
