List payables

What the company owes — every EXPENSE or DEDUCTION still PENDING, oldest due date first. This is a view over the ledger rather than a table of its own: a payable is simply a transaction that has not settled. Settle one by marking that transaction paid, which is what posts its journal entry and moves the tax liability.

Required scope

The access token must carry this scope. A token missing it gets 403 Forbidden. Grant them to an API client under Settings → Company → API, and to a teammate under Employee → Permissions.
