Bank Deposit Attachments
The Attachment Object
A Rutter Bank Deposits Attachment represents a file that can be attached to a bank deposit. In general we provide attachments data only for attachments that have been created through our POST endpoint. However, there are some platform specific differences.
Platform Differences
Netsuite:
- For POSTs, we will programmatically create a folder in the end user’s Netsuite instance titled “Upload Attachments (DO NOT DELETE)”— please notify the end user not to delete this folder, as all attachments uploaded through our API will be stored here.
- There is a 1:1 relationship for attachments and entities. If you would like the same attachment to be attached to multiple different entities (ie the same receipt attached to a bill and an expense), please make multiple POSTs and we will create duplicates of the file content in the “Upload Attachments (DO NOT DELETE)” folder.
