Timesheet lines

A timesheet line is an entry on a timesheet that represents work done by one employee on a single day. Each timesheet line should reflect the dimensions used by the company. That is, work done for one customer or project should be recorded in a separate timesheet line from work done for another customer or project, etc. Reports and invoices use the dimension values to group timesheet lines for billing.

Query timesheet lines

post/services/core/query

Queries an object for filtered data.

SecurityOAuth2
Request
Request Body schema: application/json
object
string

Object type to query, in the form <application-name>/<object name>. For custom objects use platform-apps/nsp::<object-name>.

Example: "time/timesheet-line"
fields
Array of strings

List of fields to include in the response. Can be any combination of these:

  • The name of a field in the object that you are querying, such as id.

  • The name of a field in a related object, using the form relatedObjectName.fieldName, such as vendor.id.

  • The result of an aggregate function run against the values in the returned objects. Use the form function:fieldName, such as min:startDate to return the earliest starting date. Valid function names are:

    • count
    • avg
    • sum
    • min
    • max
  • The result of an aggregate function run against the values in related objects, using the form function:relatedObjectName.fieldName, such as max:vendor.creditLimit. The same functions are supported as for object fields.

Example: ["key","id","max:vendor.creditLimit"]
Array of equal (object) or not equal (object) or less than (object) or (less than or equal (object)) or greater than (object) or (greater than or equal (object)) or in (object) or not in (object) or between (object) or not between (object) or contains (object) or does not contain (object) or starts with (object) or does not start with (object) or ends with (object) or does not end with (object)

Filter conditions to select the objects to return based on their field values. You use operators and conditions to build your filter, such as {"$eq":{"status":"active"}} to select objects in which status is equal to "active".

Example: [{"$eq":{"status":"active"}},{"$gt":{"totalDue":"1000"}},{"$contains":{"name":"Acme"}}]
Array
Any of:

Field value must be equal to this specified value.

For date fields, you can use these macro values that are relative to the current date or the asOfDate in filterParameters, if set:

  • today
  • currentWeek
  • currentMonth
  • currentQuarter
  • currentYear
  • yesterday
  • lastWeek
  • priorMonth
  • priorQuarter
  • priorYear

These are most useful for queries that you want to save and use repeatedly, such as for views or reports. Just change the asOfDate each time to retrieve the same data set for different time periods.

For example, {"eq":{"postingDate":"priorYear"}}.

object

The field name and value to be compared with object values.

Example: {"status":"active"}
filterExpression
string
Default: "and"

Logical operators to apply when there are multiple filter conditions. The conditions in the filters array are implicitly numbered starting at 1. Supports and, or, and grouping with parentheses.

Shortcuts:

  • and by itself means that all conditions must be true.
  • or by itself means that at least one condition must be true.
Example: "(1 and 2) or 3"
object

Pre-defined filter options.

asOfDate
string <date>

The "as of" date to use with any relative date comparisons in filters. For example, if asOfDate is set to "2022-04-01" then priorMonth will be "03".

The current date is used if asOfDate is not set.

Example: "2022-04-01"
includeHierarchyFields
boolean
Default: false

Set to true to include hierarchical structure information with each object in the response.

Example: false
caseSensitiveComparison
boolean
Default: true

Queries are case-sensitive by default. Set to false to ignore case in a query.

Example: true
includePrivate
boolean
Default: false

By default, in a multi-entity company, queries from the top-level entity do not access data in private entities. Set includePrivate to true if you want to query data in private entities.

Example: false
Array of objects

Set the order of the results by specifying field names to sort by and whether they should be in ascending or descending order.

Example: [{"totalDue":"asc"},{"lastPaymentMadeDate":"desc"}]
Array
property name*
additional property
string
Enum: "asc" "desc"
start
integer

First record of the result set to include in the response.

Example: 1
size
integer

Number of records to include in the response.

Example: 100
