Accounting Firm API is a new invoicing model that has been developed to meet the needs of accounting firms.
Accounting Firms API enables invoicing the accounting firms for the use of the API in the case of specific software interfaces instead of sending the invoice to the end customer. The Accounting firm API pricing model is well suited for the business of accounting firms, taking into consideration situations where the integration is used for a large number of customers.
Accountor Finago specifies which software is covered by Accounting firm API, and the accounting firm may select whether to use the Accounting firm API invoicing model for the software in question. If Accounting firm API is not used, the normal API pricing logic applies. You can find our price list here.
The Accounting firm API invoicing model is not available for all software integrated into Procountor. Only a limited number of software is covered by Accounting firm API.
Which criteria must the software meet to be covered by accounting firm API?
- the software may only be used by the accounting firm (not the customer), so that the integration only benefits the accounting firm.
- using the software requires data from the customers' Procountor environments

Implementation of accounting firm API
Implementing Accounting firm API requires having access rights to the accounting firm environment. To open the API invoicing settings in the program, go to Accounting > Accounting firm tools > API invoicing settings. The view displays the software that use Accounting firm API.
Select Allow invoicing so that the customers using the software in question are not invoiced, but the invoice is sent to the accounting firm instead.
Allow the usage of invoicable API clients setting must be ticked in customer environment's usage settings.
Ending the use of Accounting firm API
If Allow Invoicing is selected in the Accounting > Accounting firm tools > API invoicing settings -view, invoice is sent to the accounting firm, if the customer environment has some integration enabled.
If Allow invoicing is deselected, invoicing moves to the customer's invoice. Thus, the integration does not stop working even if the selection is deselected. If you want to close the integration, the integration must be disabled from the environment.
From the Basics (Human shaped icon) > Api client keys -view, you can check which environment still have an active API key. The API key is deleted using the Revoke Key button.
Also, if you no longer want to use the interface, go to the Management > Company info > Usage settings -view and deselect Allow the usage of invoiceable API clients.
