Accumulation Types

NEW!

Accumulation types let construction companies report on transaction costs across cost types.

An accumulation type is typically specified at the level of the standard cost type, but it can also be provided when creating an individual cost type.

List Accumulation Types

query

List the record number and name for each accumulation type (without any filtering):

<query>
    <object>ACCUMULATIONTYPE</object>
    <select>
        <field>RECORDNO</field>
        <field>NAME</field>
    </select>
</query>

Parameters

Name Required Type Description
object Required string Use ACCUMULATIONTYPE
select Required sequence One or more field names and an optional aggregate function such as count or sum. Returning all fields is not supported.
filter Optional object Query filter expression that adheres to the query schema. The expression can check the value of a single field using operators such as equalto/like/etc. or multiple fields using and/or expressions, optionally nested. Encode any illegal XML characters and escape single quotes with backslashes. Joins are not supported.
orderby Optional object Provide an order element with a field name and choose an ascending or descending sort order, for example:
<order>
        <field>RECORDNO</field>
        <descending/>
</order>
options Optional object Set the caseinsensitive element to true for a case-insensitive query:
<caseinsensitive>true</caseinsensitive>

Parameters

Name Required Type Description
object Required string Use ACCUMULATIONTYPE
fields Optional string Comma-separated list of fields on the object to list. For best performance and predictability, limit the number of fields. To return all fields, omit the element or provide * for the value.
query Required string SQL-like query based on fields on the object. Illegal XML characters must be properly encoded. The following SQL operators are supported: <, >, >=, <=, =, like, not like, in, not in. When doing NULL comparisons: IS NOT NULL, IS NULL. Multiple fields may be matched using the AND and OR operators. Joins are not supported.
