RE: Which fields are required when creating new records from API?

Hi, Except for the primary key, others are generally not required at the time of creation.
I think you can try to enter it on the screen, and then get the data from the API, which should be the answer you need.

For example, purchaseInvoices

{ "@odata.context": "https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/d8f36038-1f93-4543-affc-5dc92b6ee871/Sandbox202/api/v2.0/$metadata#companies(5b2a06ae-16e2-ec11-bb44-000d3a3882ad)/purchaseInvoices", "value": [ { "@odata.etag": "W/\"JzIwOzE3MjMwOTI3MDY4OTE1OTM4OTMzMTswMDsn\"", "id": "ad27a6f9-08ea-ec11-82f8-002248e884d1", "number": "107211", "invoiceDate": "2022-05-01", "postingDate": "2022-05-01", "dueDate": "2022-05-31", "vendorInvoiceNumber": "107211", "vendorId": "8318b5cf-08ea-ec11-82f8-002248e884d1", "vendorNumber": "30000", "vendorName": "Graphic Design Institute", "payToName": "Graphic Design Institute", "payToContact": "Bryce Jasso", "payToVendorId": "8318b5cf-08ea-ec11-82f8-002248e884d1", "payToVendorNumber": "30000", "shipToName": "", "shipToContact": "", "buyFromAddressLine1": "Arbachtalstrasse 6", "buyFromAddressLine2": "Unter Achalm", "buyFromCity": "Eningen", "buyFromCountry": "DE", "buyFromState": "", "buyFromPostCode": "DE-72800", "shipToAddressLine1": "5 The Ring", "shipToAddressLine2": "Westminster", "shipToCity": "London", "shipToCountry": "GB", "shipToState": "", "shipToPostCode": "W2 8HG", "payToAddressLine1": "Arbachtalstrasse 6", "payToAddressLine2": "Unter Achalm", "payToCity": "Eningen", "payToCountry": "DE", "payToState": "", "payToPostCode": "DE-72800", "shortcutDimension1Code": "", "shortcutDimension2Code": "", "currencyId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", "currencyCode": "GBP", "orderId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", "orderNumber": "", "pricesIncludeTax": false, "discountAmount": 0, "discountAppliedBeforeTax": true, "totalAmountExcludingTax": 2759.8, "totalTaxAmount": 0, "totalAmountIncludingTax": 2759.8, "status": "Draft", "lastModifiedDateTime": "2022-07-08T00:19:01.97Z" } ] }

Hope this can give you some hints.

Thanks.
