Create FinancialAccount
A FinancialAccount represents a bookkeeping account used for categorising revenue and payments. Financial accounts can be assigned to Products, EventProducts, TimePasses, ExtraServices (resource prices), Tariffs and Charges to control how income is tracked and reported. Each account has a Code (typically matching an external accounting system reference), a Name, and an AccountType that determines where it appears: Important: Changing a financial account’s details or reassigning it to different items has no effect on existing invoices. The financial account recorded on each invoice line is captured at the time the invoice is issued and is never updated retroactively.
