Derive a draft invoice from an existing one

Scopeinvoices:write

Creates a new draft invoice derived from an existing invoice of this company. Recipient, lines, payment method, series and observations are copied; number, status, dates, VeriFactu data and PDF are reset. The source invoice is not modified.

It is a sibling sub-resource of invoices rather than a variant of the create request because it is a different act: this call does not describe an invoice, it names one.


POST
/v1/companies/{company_id}/invoices/derivations
AuthorizationBearer <token>

API Key authentication.

Format: Authorization: Bearer beel_sk_<key>

Scopes: API Keys use the same scopes as OAuth2 tokens. Each key is created with specific scopes that limit which endpoints it can access. The required scope for each endpoint is documented in the operation's security section under OAuth2.

Obtaining Keys: API Keys are managed from the BeeL dashboard

Security: API Keys are secret credentials. Do not share them or store them in source code

In: header

Path Parameters

company_idstring

NIF (company) the operation acts on. It is the only source of context: the account that owns it is derived from it, and the BeeL-Active-Company header plays no part. A NIF you do not reach answers 403, and so does a NIF that does not exist, so the existence of a NIF in another account is never disclosed.

Formatuuid

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key?string

Idempotency key to prevent duplicates in sensitive operations.

  • Any unique client-generated string (e.g. an order id). A UUID also works but is not required
  • Allowed characters: letters, digits, _ and - (max 255 chars)
  • If the same key is sent twice, the result of the first operation is returned
  • Keys expire 24 hours after processing

The key is scoped per user and environment, and bound to the request body, so retrying after a network timeout replays the stored response instead of repeating the operation.

StatusCodeWhen
400INVALID_IDEMPOTENCY_KEYThe key breaks the format rules above.
409IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_PROCESSINGThe first request is still in flight. Wait and retry with the same key.
409IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_MISMATCHThe key was already used with a different body. Use a new key.

How to derive the new invoice from from_invoice_id.

  • DUPLICATE: copy an existing invoice into a fresh draft. The source invoice is not modified.

Turning a proforma into an invoice is not a derivation mode: it is a fiscal act that numbers a document and moves the source proforma to a terminal status, so it keeps its own dedicated operation.

Value in"DUPLICATE"
series_id?string
notes?string

Observations for the new draft. Defaults to those of the source invoice.
