When Posting a payment to the endpoint Sale/CustomerPayment or Purchase/SupplierPayment you may encounter the error:

}
],
"Information": "Warning, error messages have not been finalised in this release and may change"
}
The error is caused by the setup of the account. When we set up a bank or credit card account we will be given account-type options. This will determine if we can use this account for payments.
When we create an Asset account we can select the following Account types:
Bank
Accounts Receivable
Other Asset
Other Current Asset
Fixed Asset
When we create a Liability account we can select the following Account Types:
Credit Card
Accountd Payable
Other current Liability
Long Term Liability
Other liability
In order to be able to use the account for payments this needs to be set up as Type: Bank or Credit Card if this is set to another account type the API will return the error AccountNotValid.
In order to check the setup of the account you can complete a get request to the endpoint /GeneralLedger/Account.
