Properties

Name Type Description
MatchType c2g.BackgroundMatchingService.MatchType Specifies whether matching should be performed based on Customer Reference or Document Number. This is required when using Company IDs to match for single or multiple companies. In single company mode, this takes the default value from the selected company.
PartialPayment Boolean If true, two transaction lines can be matched, even if their amounts are not same. This is required when using Company IDs to match for single or multiple companies. In single company mode, this takes the default value from the selected company.
MatchingDate Date The matching date. Current date is used by default.
MatchUptoDate Date The date to match up to. Any cash entries, journals, sales invoices, and sales credit notes with a date later than this date are not matched. The current date is used by default.
Mode c2g.BackgroundMatchingService.MatchMode Specifies how any available outstanding cash entry, journal, or credit note should be automatically matched to other sales invoice or credit note for the same account.
AccountIds Set<Id> Identifies the accounts whose transactions you want to match. By default background matching is performed for all accounts.
CashEntryIds Set<Id> Identifies the Cash Entry whose transactions you want to match.
CurrencyMode c2g.BackgroundMatchingService.CurrencyMode Specifies whether matching should be in the currency of the account, or the currency of the posted document. This is required when using Company IDs to match for single or multiple companies. In single company mode, this takes the default value from the selected company.

MatchActions List<c2g.BackgroundMatchingService.MatchAction> Specifies match actions to execute in the process. The processes are executed in the order in which match actions are passed. Till Spring 21 release, matchCash() synchronous method was matching cash entries to invoices and credit notes. Fall 21 onwards, if no Match Action is passed explicitly then it will match cash entries to invoices only. By default, the CASHRECEIPT_TO_INVOICE match action is executed in the synchronous call if nothing is passed. The CASHRECEIPT_TO_INVOICE and CASHREFUND_TO_CREDITNOTE match actions are executed in the asynchronous call if nothing is passed. We recommend that you check the default order in the "About Background Matching" in the Accounting Help.
