Contract Income

When a contract is paid by other companies, you are typically required to issue a “Contract Income” received payment.

This guide demonstrates how to create a “Contract Income” received payment, for companies located in Greece (myDATA document type “7.1 Contract - Income”)

Authorization variables

• Token: API key.
  To find your API key open the Elorus web application and navigate to the "User Profile". The API key is personal and there's only one key per user.
• X-Elorus-Organization: Organization ID.
  The organization whose data you wish to access. To find the Organization ID visit the Elorus web application and navigate to "Settings > Organization > Organization ID". Each organization has an ID of its own.

Client

1.1 Create a new contact

- The guide assumes you’re working on a new Elorus organization, so this step can be omitted.

First lets create a contact so there is someone to receive payment from. In a business context, contacts are individuals or businesses whom you transact with; typically your clients, leads, suppliers and partners. Since Elorus will let you manage your sales as well as your expenses, a contact may represent either a client or a supplier (or even both).

1.2 Get contact ID

Filter e.g. by “company”, to get the contact ID. Retrieved contact ID in this case is “2480647926494267071”.

Taxes

2.1 About taxes

By default there are some taxes preset in Elorus. Usually 24% tax is used for Greece “Contract Income” so the preset tax will be retrieved and used. In case there is a need for a new tax to be created, use of Elorus' UI is mandatory.
Optional steps to create new tax:

1. Login to your Elorus account
2. Go to: “Settings -> Taxes”
3. Click “+Add” on top right corner
4. And set it up as the picture below. AADE category and title used are for example purposes.
5. Click “Save”

2.2 Get taxes ID

Search by “percentage”, to get the tax ID. Retrieved tax ID in this case is “2476911428611605999”. Make sure that “aade_type”:1 is in the response packet.
