General Ledger Account Search

Enterprise SOAP API > API by Reference > Core Services > General Ledger Account Search

General Ledger Account Search

General Ledger Account Search is a jXchange service designed to allow consumers to inquire on a General Ledger account.

Message Flow

In jXchange, the General Ledger Account Search service uses a typical exchange of MType messages to provide a service that allows consumers to search on a General Ledger account. This search returns an array of records with the data required for the GL Account Inquiry service, which yields a single record with more fields.

Primary Request

The Third Party Consumer forwards the GLAcctSrchRq_MType message to the Service Provider. The message contains the following simple elements:

  • AcctId
  • AcctTitle
  • BrCode
  • GLCostCtr
  • GLProdCode

Primary Response

The Service Provider returns the GLAcctSrchRs_MType message to the Third Party Consumer. The message contains an echo of the requested elements.

General Ledger Account Search Behavior

The objective of the General Ledger Account Search service is to provide the consumer with the General Ledger account identification to be used for a subsequent call of the General Ledger Account Inquiry service.

The GLAcctSrchRq_MType request message contains a documented choice statement where the elements at the root are optional, but at least one of the elements is required. The AcctId, AcctTitle, BrCode, GLCostCtr, and GLProdCode are available in the GLAcctSrchRq_MType request message.

The following canonical values for the AcctId SrchType attribute are supported ~Exact~, ~StartsWith~, and ~EndsWith~. The following canonical values for the AcctTitle SrchType attribute are supported: ~Exact~, ~StartsWith~, and ~Contains~.

The GLAcctSrchRs_MType response message echoes the requested elements. The GLAcctSrchRecArray_AType array returns all of the items related to the filter(s).
