Accounting Invocable Action Reference

Find

Search accounting records by name and returns the matching record ID. The name is the record's Name field value, typically the record number (for example "SIN000123"). Supported document types are journals (c2g__codaJournal__c), sales invoices (c2g__codaInvoice__c), sales credit notes (c2g__codaCreditNote__c), payable invoices (c2g__codaPurchaseInvoice__c), payable credit notes (c2g__codaPurchaseCreditNote__c) and cash entries (c2g__codaCashEntry__c). Use this action when a user refers to a record by its name or number and you need its record ID, for example to look up, open, or carry out a follow-up action on that record. Returns, per request, the record ID of the matching record on success, or the error message if no record could be found.
