A list of Transaction objects
The unique ID of the object. This is used as an idempotency
key to prevent duplicates. This is manually set as part of the create
transactions request. If the transaction is created via a data integration,
Plaid for example, it will be set to the transaction_id to enforce
idempotency with the data source.
The value of the transaction in decimal dollar cents.
The UTC datetime that the Transaction was created. This
will never be before an Instance's entries_start date. When importing
transactions, transactions whose datetime is before the Instance’s
entries_start date will be skipped. Other transactions will be processed
as normal.
An arbitrary string on the object, useful for displaying information to the user.
Arbitrary structured information about the transaction. This could be location of the transaction to display to the user or vendor information to use as part of a Platform or Instance categorization rule. Teal does not use metadata for any accounting purposes.

Entry's movement of value. Only null if the Instance is using QuickBooks as
their accounting package.

the Ledger and want to restrict user changes, for example, if the Ledger is
for a bank account or a payments account you control (i.e. you are a neobank
or using a Banking as a Service platform).
If specified, indicates that the ledger represents a real-world financial account.
If provided when creating a new
